[PATCH v2] gpu: drm/amd: Remove the redundant null pointer check in list_for_each_entry() loops

[Lu Hongfei]

pqn bound in list_for_each_entry loop will not be null, so there is
no need to check whether pqn is NULL or not.
Thus remove a redundant null pointer check.

1. Modified the patch title
2. "Thus remove a redundant null pointer check." is used instead of
   "We could remove this check."

Right, this check doesn't make a lot of sense. Jon, was this meant to 
check pqn->q?

Yes that's a bug.  It should be a null check on the queue itself.
I'll send out the fix shortly.

Thanks,

Jon
