#1637171 — [PATCH] ipmi_ssif: remove redundant null check on array client->adapter->name

FromColin King <colin.king@canonical.com>
Date2017-05-08 02:10 +0200
Subject[PATCH] ipmi_ssif: remove redundant null check on array client->adapter->name
Message-ID<tEEpr-4L8-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The null check on client->adapter->name is redundant as name is an
array of I2C_NAME_SIZE chars and hence can never be null. We may as
well remove this redundant check.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1375918 ("Array compared against 0")
