Subject: [PATCH net] ethtool: remove unnecessary check in ethtool_get_regs()
Date: Fri, 01 Feb 2019 08:24:06 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190201082406.GA8459@kadam> (raw)

We recently changed this function in commit f9fc54d313fa ("ethtool:
check the return value of get_regs_len") such that if "reglen" is zero
we return directly.  That means we can remove this condition as well.
