Subject: [PATCH resent] staging: rtl8188eu: Deletion of unnecessary checks
 before three function calls

The functions kfree(), rtw_free_netdev() and vfree() test whether their
argument is NULL and then return immediately. Thus the test around the call
is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
