Re: [PATCH v4 1/8] hw/intc/gicv3_its: Do not check its_class_name()

[Philippe Mathieu-Daudé]

Hi Gustavo, why reset authorship?

On 16/6/25 15:18, Gustavo Romero wrote:

Since commit cc5e719e2c8 ("kvm: require KVM_CAP_SIGNAL_MSI"), the single
implementation of its_class_name() no longer returns NULL (it now always
returns a valid char pointer). Hence, update the prototype docstring and
remove the tautological checks that use the its_class_name() returned
value.
