__hash_remove() removes hash_cell with _hash_lock locked, so acquiring _hash_lock can guarantee no-NULL hc returned from dm_get_mdptr() must have not been removed and hc->md must still be md. __hash_remove() also acquires dm_hash_cells_mutex before setting mdptr as NULL. So in dm_copy_name_and_uuid(), after acquiring dm_hash_cells_mutex and ensuring returned hc is not NULL, the returned hc must still be alive and hc->md must still be md. Remove the unnecessary hc->md != md checks when using dm_get_mdptr() with _hash_lock or dm_hash_cells_mutex acquired.

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.
