[PATCH] check_release_resource: Remove some test about functions that are no more part of linux

[Christophe JAILLET]

request_mem_resource() and release_mem_resource() seem to not exist in
recent kernel. Remove them.

I've tried to find it in older version. I randomly tried some search
with elixir, up to 2.6, but never found these function. Any idea where it
comes from?

That function predates git.  It's possible that check was inspired by
these review comments.
https://linux-arm-kernel.infradead.narkive.com/s6FjnFOw/patch-v2-i-mx31-add-hw-random-for-rnga
But those review comments were written during the git era so that's kind
of a weird thing.

Anyway, both patches applied.  Thanks!
