[PATCH 1/1] DRM-EDID: Deletion of an unnecessary check before the function call "release_firmware"

From: SF Markus Elfring <hidden>
Date: 2014-11-19 15:40:29
Also in: dri-devel, lkml
Subsystem: drm drivers, drm drivers and misc gpu patches, the rest · Maintainers: David Airlie, Simona Vetter, Maarten Lankhorst, Maxime Ripard, Thomas Zimmermann, Linus Torvalds

From: Markus Elfring <redacted>
Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2014 16:33:17 +0100

The release_firmware() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
