[patch] ath9k: cleanup: remove unneeded null check

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We dereference "wmi" on the line before and also when we initialize "ah".
This check has always been after a dereference since the first commit a
couple months ago.  Looking through the code, it looks like "wmi" can't 
actually be null here so I just removed the check.
