From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2015 20:44:49 +0200 The backlight_device_unregister() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
