ravb: kill redundant check in the probe() method
Browsing thru the driver disassembly, I noticed that gcc was able to figure out that the 'ndev' pointer is always non-NULL when calling free_netdev() on the probe() method's error path and thus skip that redundant NULL check... gcc is smart, be like gcc! :-) Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sergei.shtylyov@cogentembedded.com> Reviewed-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@glider.be> Signed-off-by: David S.
