[PATCH 1/1] SCSI: bnx2i: remove redundant check

From: Maninder Singh
Date: Fri Jul 03 2015 - 04:00:19 EST


Removing static analysis error:-
(error) Possible null pointer dereference: hba
hba->cid_que.conn_cid_tbl[iscsi_cid] = bnx2i_conn;
^^^^

Validation of hba is not required in if check,
because validation is done before entrying to this function
and error comes because after this check hba is dereferenced
without validation.
