 Here is some additional information:

 binutils switched from GPL 2 to GPL 3 with version 2.18:

 Changes in 2.18:

 * The binutils sources are now released under version 3 of the GNU
 General
   Public License.


 sparc-dis.c is already based on 2.17, so we won't get anything newer.
 Even the latest version still uses the redundant NULL check, so I
 can send my patch to the binutils maintainers, too.

So did you? And did they accept it?

Regards,
Andreas

 Ping? If nobody objects, I suggest to apply the patch via qemu-trivial.

*-dis sounds like binutils - did upstream drop the if, too?
If not, then diverging for a non-issue does not seem necessary.

Having said that, it's amazing what fixes you come up with. Did you
describe the use of that tool in some posting or in the Wiki?

Ah, good point.  I don't think we should apply this patch :P.

Dropping the patch from qemu-trivial until this discussion finishes.

AFAIK, binutils moved to GPL 3. Therefore I don't expect that
QEMU will update to upstream in the next years.

We'll have to maintain the code which we have.

Try git log *-dis.c or gitk *-dis.c: there are already lots
of more trivial changes which got applied to the disassembler files.
