[patch 13/17] drivers/scsi: Remove unnecessary NULL test

[akpm@linux-foundation.org]

From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

At the point where cmnd is initialized, it is tested for NULL, so it
doesn't have to be tested again here.

A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this problem is as
follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):

// <smpl>
@match exists@
expression x, E;
identifier fld;
@@

* x->fld
  ... when != \(x = E\|&x\)
* x == NULL
// </smpl>
