[PATCH v2] staging:gpib: Fix a dereference before null check issue

[Paolo Perego]

This commit fixes a dereference before null check issue discovered by 
Coverity (CID 1601566).

The check at line 1450 suggests that a_priv can be NULL, however it has
been dereferenced before, in the interface_to_usbdev() call.

After a discussion, the NULL check is useless because private data is allocated
in attach routine and freed in detach routine, so in detach routine the pointer
has to be not NULL for sure.

Fixes: Removes a useless NULL check

---
v2: 
* After a discussion, we agreed the NULL check is useless because private data
  is freed in detach routine and allocated while attaching. For such a reason,
  the pointer has to be not NULL while detaching the device
