ACPI / event: remove unneeded NULL pointer check
nla_data() cannot return NULL as it simply adds NLA_HDRLEN to the passed pointer. The NULL pointer check is therefore superfluous. Remove it. Found by smatch: drivers/acpi/event.c:130 acpi_bus_generate_netlink_event() warn: can 'event' even be NULL? Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause <minipli@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
