The parameter passed to ai_detach() is guaranteed to never be NULL because it is checked by the caller. Consequently, the result of container_of() on it is also never NULL, and a NULL check on it is unnecessary. Even without that, the NULL check would still be unnecessary because the subsequent kfree() can handle NULL arguments. On top of all that, it is misleading to check the result of container_of() against NULL because the position of the contained element could change, which would make the check invalid. Remove it. This change was made automatically with the following Coccinelle script. @@ type t; identifier v; statement s; @@ <+...

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.
