This code has been here since the initial support of TMIO
by commit  4a48998fa16121d0fe3436cce43afd6f47424103.

So, we have no way to know the reason
except asking the author, Ian Molton.

My best guess is unnecessary if-conditional was added
and overlooked in the review process.

mmc has been allocated, and platform_set_drvdata() has been called
in the driver probe.

I do not see any case for mmc==NULL.
