Do not dereference the 'struct pl330_thread *thrd' before the check for
non-NULL value.

This fixes following warning:
drivers/dma/pl330.c:1376 pl330_submit_req() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'thrd' (see line 1367)

I think we can just drop that whole line of checks, none of them will ever be true.
