Subject: [RESEND PATCH] apparmor: Remove unnecessary NULL check before kvfree()
Date: Thu,  7 Nov 2024 12:25:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241107112526.2312-2-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)

Since kvfree() already checks if its argument is NULL, an additional
check before calling kvfree() is unnecessary and can be removed.

Remove it and the following Coccinelle/coccicheck warning reported by
ifnullfree.cocci:

  WARNING: NULL check before some freeing functions is not needed
