From 11ecede7874efb9c31184b49090fc6d9bb17f9f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Allan Stephens Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2008 19:01:43 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [TIPC]: Remove redundant NULL check when discarding buffers This patch eliminates a null pointer check when discarding a TIPC message buffer, since kfree_skb() already handles this situation.
