[PATCH 1/4] libnvdimm: remove redundant list_empty() check in badrange.c

From: Zhen Lei
Date: Thu Aug 20 2020 - 10:31:13 EST


In add_badrange() or badblocks_populate(), the list_empty() branch does
the same things as the code after list_for_each_entry(). And the
list_for_each_entry() will do noting when list_empty().

So the list_empty() branch can be removed without functional change, let
the code after list_for_each_entry() to do it.
