Subject: [PATCH] Staging: rtl8192u: Remove check of ieee in rtl819x_BAProc.c

This patch fixes following smatch warning:

drivers/staging/rtl8192u/ieee80211/rtl819x_BAProc.c:117
ieee80211_ADDBA() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'ieee' (see line 114)

As ieee can not be NULL at this point, all such checks are removed.
