Subject: [PATCH 2/2] CW1200: Less function calls in cw1200_load_firmware_cw1200()
 after error detection

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2015 17:28:41 +0100

The functions kfree() and release_firmware() were called in a few cases
by the cw1200_load_firmware_cw1200() function during error handling even if
the passed variables contained still a null pointer.

Corresponding implementation details could be improved by adjustments for
jump targets.
