[Patch] Remove unnecessary check in drivers/net/depca.c

[Patch] Remove unnecessary check in drivers/net/depca.c

[Eric Sesterhenn]

hi,

this was spotted by coverity (cid #793). All callers dereference dev before
calling this functions, and we dereference it earlier in the function,
when initializing lp.
