From: Leo Kim <leo.kim@xxxxxxxxx> This patch fixes the warning reported by smatch. - wilc_wlan_get_firmware() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'vif' - wilc_set_multicast_list() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'dev' Just delete them and no need add null check since they are net_device from ndo_set_rx_mode of net_device_ops and vif of netdev_priv.
