[PATCH 1/2] staging: media: Remove NULL test on an already tested value

From: Abraham Samuel Adekunle
Date: Wed Apr 02 2025 - 19:30:07 EST


When a value has been tested for NULL in an expression, a
second NULL test on the same value in another expression
is unnecessary when the value has not been assigned NULL.

Remove unnecessary duplicate NULL tests on the same value that
has previously been NULL tested.
