[PATCH] drivers/net: appletalk/cops: remove redundant if statement and mask

From: Colin King
Date: Sat Dec 22 2018 - 13:32:14 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The two different assignments for pkt_len are actually the same and
so the if statement is redundant and can be removed. Masking a u8
return value from inb() with 0xFF is also redundant and can also be
emoved. Remove the redundant code.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1475639 ("Identical code for different
branches")
