From 753a9a729f84e22b3726f5bf61e1a9b59712d04f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Luca Coelho Date: Fri, 30 Aug 2019 14:24:50 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: don't check if key is NULL in ieee80211_key_link() We already assume that key is not NULL and dereference it in a few other places before we check whether it is NULL, so the check is unnecessary. Remove it.
