Subject: brcmfmac: remove null-pointer check in .sched_scan_start() callback
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dc7bdbf1ae939d74485569db285971274f4d8fea;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

brcmfmac: remove null-pointer check in .sched_scan_start() callback

In brcmf_cfg80211_sched_scan_start() the request parameter was checked
for being non-null. However, it never is so remove the check which gets
rid of following smatch warning:

drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmfmac/wl_cfg80211.c:2904
brcmf_cfg80211_sched_scan_start()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'request' (see line 2897)
