This patch removes these smatch warnings: redundant null check on dgap_TmpWriteBuf calling kfree() redundant null check on brd->SerialDriver->ttys calling kfree() redundant null check on brd->PrintDriver->ttys calling kfree() The code checked to see if these variables are null before freeing. This check isn't needed.
