[PATCH] Cleanup snmp6_alloc_dev()

From: Pavel Emelyanov <hidden>
Date: 2007-10-17 10:47:23
Subsystem: networking [general], networking [ipv4/ipv6], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, David Ahern, Ido Schimmel, Linus Torvalds

This functions is never called with NULL or not setup argument,
so the checks inside are redundant.

Also, the return value is always -ENOMEM, so no need in 
additional variable for this.
