staging: rtl8192e: Remove unnecessary code
kfree on NULL pointer is a no-op. This used the following semantic patch to identify such a instance // <smpl> @@ expression E; @@ - if (E != NULL) { kfree(E); } + kfree(E); @@ expression E; @@ - if (E != NULL) { kfree(E); E = NULL; } + kfree(E); + E = NULL; // </smpl> As rxb is always null at this point, so the code to kfree it and intializing it to NULL is removed completely. Suggested by: Julia Lawall <julia.lawall@lip6.fr> Signed-off-by: Tapasweni Pathak <tapaswenipathak@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
