------- Additional Comments from Kristian Høgsberg <krh-1OA22m9ORUweIZ0/[email protected]>
Sorry for the late nomination, I was going through our RPM today and found
this.  The patch is a bit tricky, because 1) this code uses assignments in if
conditionals in other places and 2) there are extra ( ) around the assignment
as if to silence the warning.

However, looking at the context, it's clear that the patch doesn't break
anything, since just below the if statement there is code dereferencing
pBusInfo, but if this code is reached pBusInfo would be NULL.

We have this patch in our RPM.
