[PATCH] fs-namespace: Delete unnecessary checks before the function call "mntput"

From: SF Markus Elfring <hidden>
Date: 2015-07-04 09:26:54
Also in: kernel-janitors, linux-fsdevel
Subsystem: filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

From: Markus Elfring <redacted>

The mntput() 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.
