Subject: [PATCH] wl3501_cs: Remove unnecessary NULL check
Date: Sat, 26 Sep 2020 18:45:58 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200926174558.9436-1-alex.dewar90@gmail.com> (raw)
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.
Addresses-Coverity: CID 710499: Null pointer dereferences (REVERSE_INULL)
