Subject: [PATCH 1/1] drbd: Deletion of an unnecessary check before the function
 call "lc_destroy"

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2014 13:33:32 +0100

The lc_destroy() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
