From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/zswap: delete unnecessary check before calling free_percpu()

free_percpu() 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.
