Reviewing the delta between cppcheck output of v4.9.39 and v4.9.40
stable updates, I stumbled on the new warning:
mxl111sf.c:80: (warning) Possible null pointer dereference: rbuf
Since copying state->rcvbuf into rbuf is not needed in the 'write-only'
scenario (i.e. calling mxl111sf_ctrl_msg() from mxl111sf_i2c_send_data()
or from mxl111sf_write_reg()), bypass memcpy() in this case.
Fixes: d90b336f3f ("[media] mxl111sf: Fix driver to use heap allocate buffers for USB messages")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
