[PATCH] eCryptfs: Delete a check before the function call "key_put"

From: SF Markus Elfring
Date: Fri Jun 26 2015 - 12:25:23 EST

The key_put() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around this call might not be needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
