Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ALSA: core: Deletion of unnecessary checks before two
 function calls

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2014 18:34:48 +0100

The functions snd_seq_oss_timer_delete() and vunmap() perform also input
parameter validation. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
