[PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unnecessary else after break

[Vo Thanh Cong]

This patch fixes the checkpatch.pl warning:
"WARNING: else is not generally useful after a break or return"

In sdio_ops_linux.c, the else blocks after break statements are
redundant. Removing them reduces indentation level and improves
code readability.

You dropped the blank line before this if statement, why?

Please preserve line breaks like this, it makes the code easier to read
and understand.

[PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unnecessary else after break

[Raushan Kumar]

Remove else following a break statement in
enqueue_reorder_recvframe(), since the preceding if branch
already returns, making the else redundant, as flagged by
checkpatch.pl.
