[PATCH 1/2] ipc/mqueue: Delete an unnecessary check before the macro call âdev_kfree_skbâ

[Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2019 14:07:57 +0200

The dev_kfree_skb() function performs also input parameter validation.
Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
