From e23afff94803e9735d4f0edda0c77efad8d408a4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Elfring Date: Thu, 5 Nov 2015 14:34:43 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] staging: most: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "module_put" The module_put() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
