Subject: [PATCH] engine: mv_xor: remove redundant null check on cd
Date: Wed,  1 Mar 2017 14:07:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170301140721.22341-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The check to see if cd is null is redundant, pdata->channels is
never null at this point, and hence &pdata->channels[i] cannot
be null, so remove the null check.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1357194 ("Logically Dead Code")
