link_path_walk: handle get_link() returning ERR_PTR() immediately
If we get ERR_PTR() from get_link(), we are guaranteed to get err != 0 when we break out of do-while, so we are going to hit if (err) return err; shortly after it. Pull that into the if (IS_ERR(s)) body. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
