Removed checks for pointers != NULL before freeing memory. If kvfree() and kfree() are given NULL pointers no operations are performed, so there is no need for the above-mentioned checks. Coccinelle detected the second of the two unnecessary checks. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-media/20210527193922.25225-1-fmdefrancesco@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Fabio M.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
