Subject: driver core: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "put_device"
X-Git-Tag: v5.15~16003^2~22

driver core: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "put_device"

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

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
