[PATCH 1/2] staging: wilc1000: Delete unnecessary checks before two function calls

From: SF Markus Elfring <hidden>
Date: 2015-06-27 14:36:23
Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: staging subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, Linus Torvalds

From: Markus Elfring <redacted>
Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2015 15:56:57 +0200

The functions kfree() and release_firmware() test whether their argument
is NULL and then return immediately.
Thus the test around the calls is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
