[PATCH] Staging: rtl8723bs: Do not check for NOT NULL before kfree()
From: Shreeya Patel
Date: Tue Dec 19 2017 - 14:08:00 EST
Do not check for NOT NULL before calling kfree because
if the pointer is NULL, no action occurs.
Done using the following semantic patch by coccinelle.
@@
expression ptr;
@@
- if (ptr != NULL)
kfree(ptr);
