#1270058 — [PATCH] rtlwifi: Delete unnecessary checks before the function call "kfree_skb"

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Mon, 16 Nov 2015 13:12:25 +0100

The kfree_skb() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the calls is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
