[PATCH ath-next] wifi: ath12k: remove skb->data check in ath12k_wmi_process_tpc_stats()
From: Jeff Johnson
Date: Tue Jul 28 2026 - 21:15:36 EST
Currently, ath12k_wmi_process_tpc_stats() has a !skb->data check. This
check is pointless since skb->data is accessed by ath12k_wmi_op_rx() in
order to dispatch the message to this function, therefore it is always
non-NULL.
Remove the pointless check and its associated warning message.
Compile tested only.
