From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 07ecc6693f9157cf293da5d165c73fb28fd69bf4 ] __kobject_del() is called from two places, in one where kobj is dereferenced before and thus can't be NULL, and in the other the NULL check is done before call. Drop unneeded conditional in __kobject_del(). Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Rafael J.
