Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ALSA: ctxfi: Deletion of an unnecessary check before
 the function call "kfree"

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Tue, 2 Dec 2014 20:00:33 +0100

The kfree() function performs also input parameter validation.
Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
