[patch] caif: remove unneeded null check in caif_connect()
From: Dan Carpenter
Date: Sat May 22 2010 - 16:44:22 EST
We already dereferenced uaddr towards the start of the function when we
checked that "uaddr->sa_family != AF_CAIF". Both the check here and the
earlier check were added in bece7b2398d0: "caif: Rewritten socket
implementation". Before that patch, we assumed that we recieved a valid
pointer for uaddr, and based on that, I have removed this check.
