[PATCH v2 3/6] net-PPP: Deletion of unnecessary checks before the function call "kfree"

[SF Markus Elfring]

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2014 22:22:23 +0100

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

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
