We had an error handling pattern for read_tree_block() like this:
eb = read_tree_block();
if (IS_ERR(eb)) {
/*
* Handling error here
* Normally ended up with return or goto out.
*/
} else if (!extent_buffer_uptodate(eb)) {
/*
* Different error handling here
* Normally also ended up with return or goto out;
*/
}
This is fine, but if we want to add extra check for each
read_tree_block(), the existing if-else-if is not that expandable and
will take reader some seconds to figure out there is no extra branch.
Here we change it to a more common way, without the extra else:
eb = read_tree_block();
if (IS_ERR(eb)) {
/*
* Handling error here
*/
return eb or goto out;
}
if (!extent_buffer_uptodate(eb)) {
/*
* Different error handling here
*/
return eb or goto out;
}
This also removes some oddball call sites which uses some creative way
to check error.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
