[PATCH 1/1] SCSI-bfa: Deletion of an unnecessary check before the function call "vfree"

From: SF Markus Elfring
Date: Thu Nov 20 2014 - 17:47:27 EST

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

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
