[PATCH] net-ipv6: Delete unnecessary checks before the function call "kfree_skb"

From: SF Markus Elfring <hidden>
Date: 2015-11-14 19:05:54
Also in: kernel-janitors, netdev, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

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

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
