From 9968e459f1378a1c00301472cfe672497fe001d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathias Krause Date: Tue, 5 Nov 2013 21:25:32 +0100 Subject: ACPI / event: remove unneeded NULL pointer check nla_data() cannot return NULL as it simply adds NLA_HDRLEN to the passed pointer. The NULL pointer check is therefore superfluous. Remove it. Found by smatch: drivers/acpi/event.c:130 acpi_bus_generate_netlink_event() warn: can 'event' even be NULL?
