Subject: ax25: remove unneeded NULL test in ax_xmit()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=feb27d155dfabcb8baabe10367f25fc2b1bcede1;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

ax25: remove unneeded NULL test in ax_xmit()

We get a static checker warning here on devel kernels:

	drivers/net/hamradio/mkiss.c:560 ax_xmit()
	warn: variable dereferenced before check 'skb' (see line 532)

It turns out that the NULL check can be deleted.
