[PATCH] ufs: remove an unneed NULL check on list iterator

[PATCH] ufs: remove an unneed NULL check on list iterator

[Xiaomeng Tong]

The list iterator is always non-NULL so it doesn't need to be checked.
Thus just remove the unnecessary NULL check.

Maybe it make more sense to move that check after the loop body instead
of removing it completely? This code obviously does nothing in it's current
state but it's clear what the original intention was, so restoring that would
perhaps be better.

But probably someone with more experience about this code can make the call

This seems like a better choice, if it doesn't go against the author's original
intention. I will fix it in PATCH v2, thanks.
