Subject: [PATCH 1/1] tty-hvsi_lib: Deletion of an unnecessary check before
 the function call "tty_kref_put"

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2014 12:40:32 +0100

The tty_kref_put() 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.
