Subject: ath6kl: Remove bogus non-NULL pointer check
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cc4d623de46616825d9330467e0a7375835171be;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

ath6kl: Remove bogus non-NULL pointer check

In ath6kl_cfg80211_add_key(), params is checked for non-NULL
but this pointer has been deferenced many times before this check. This
gives the following smatch warning. add_key() can never carry NULL as
params, remove this bogus check.

ath6kl_cfg80211_add_key(86) warn: variable dereferenced before check 'params'
