I actually prefer the original code. Code is also documentation. It
documents the fact, if "snps,tx-sched-sp" is in device tree, we use
MTL_TX_ALGORITHM_SP, but otherwise we default to MTL_TX_ALGORITHM_SP.
As with my suggestion for forcedeth, i would move the default setting
to before the whole if/else if/else block to document it is the
default.
Or just consider this a false positive and leave it alone. I can see
value in the coccinelle script, but it is going to have a lot of false
positive cases, so i'm not sure there is value in working around them
all.
