[PATCH 11/11] batman-adv: Drop reduntant batadv interface check

From: Simon Wunderlich <sw@simonwunderlich.de>
Date: 2021-06-08 15:35:43
Also in: batman
Subsystem: batman advanced, the rest · Maintainers: Marek Lindner, Simon Wunderlich, Antonio Quartulli, Sven Eckelmann, Linus Torvalds

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

If batadv_hardif_enable_interface is called then its called from its
callback ndo_add_slave. It is therefore not necessary to check if it is a
batadv interface.
