From 0d135e4f263af7da3c2fbe5f99b377cf483b6adf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2016 12:08:42 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net: atm: remove redundant null pointer check on dev->name dev->name is a char array of IFNAMSIZ elements, hence can never be null, so the null pointer check is redundant.
