[PATCH 1/1] netfilter: Deletion of unnecessary checks before two function calls

SF Markus Elfring
2014-11-18T19:47:31Z

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2014 20:37:05 +0100

The functions free_percpu() and module_put() test whether their argument
is NULL and then return immediately. Thus the test around the call is
not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
