[PATCH] staging: wilc1000: Remove unnecessary pointer check
From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Thu Sep 20 2018 - 17:27:17 EST
Clang warns that the address of a pointer will always evaluated as true
in a boolean context:
drivers/staging/wilc1000/linux_wlan.c:267:20: warning: address of
'vif->ndev->dev' will always evaluate to 'true'
[-Wpointer-bool-conversion]
if (!(&vif->ndev->dev))
~ ~~~~~~~~~~~^~~
1 warning generated.
Since this statement always evaluates to false due to the logical not,
remove it.
