Subject: [PATCH] [media] au0828: Delete unnecessary checks before the function
 call "video_unregister_device"

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2015 19:00:25 +0100

The video_unregister_device() 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.
