From: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.15 commit d2846bf33c1423ff872c7a7c2afde292ad502c04 category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4G67J?from=project-issue CVE: NA ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 'fnd' has been dereferenced several time before, so testing it here is pointless. Moreover, all callers of 'indx_find()' already have some error handling code that makes sure that no NULL 'fnd' is passed. So, remove the useless test.
