From c614e109c184edd7900d9ff4d6de9ef94bc4d85b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Mon, 3 May 2010 11:08:15 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: algapi - Remove unneeded null check We don't check "frontend" consistently in crypto_init_spawn2(). We check it at the start of the function but then we dereference it unconditionally in the parameter list when we call crypto_init_spawn(). I looked at the places that call crypto_init_spawn2() and "frontend" is always a valid pointer so I removed the check for null.
