From: Alex Dewar <alex.dewar90@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 1d2a85382282e7c77cbde5650335c3ffc6073fa1 ] In wl3501_detach(), link->priv is checked for a NULL value before being passed to free_netdev(). However, it cannot be NULL at this point as it has already been passed to other functions, so just remove the check.
