Subject: [PATCH v2] yam: remove redundant null check on dev
Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2013 18:25:04 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1364408704-27359-1-git-send-email-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

yam_open has a redundant null check on null,  it will
never be called with dev == NULL. Remove this redundant check.
This also cleans up a smatch warning:

drivers/net/hamradio/yam.c:869 yam_open() warn: variable
  dereferenced before check 'dev' (see line 867)
