Hello Joao Pinto,

The patch 54139cf3bb33: "net: stmmac: adding multiple buffers for rx" from Apr 6, 2017, leads to the following static checker warning:

	drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_main.c:1274 init_dma_rx_desc_rings()
	warn: always true condition '(queue >= 0) => (0-u32max >= 0)'

drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_main.c
1270
1271 return 0;
1272
1273 err_init_rx_buffers:

  1274          while (queue >= 0) {
                       ^^^^^^^^^^

This is harmless because of the break statement later, but slightly annoying because of the static checker warning.

  1275                  while (--i >= 0)
  1276                          stmmac_free_rx_buffer(priv, queue, i);
  1277  
  1278                  if (queue = 0)
  1279                          break;
  1280  
  1281                  i = DMA_RX_SIZE;
  1282                  queue--;
  1283          }
  1284  
  1285          return ret;
  1286  }

regards,
