Subject: [PATCH v2] staging: comedi: dt282x: condition with no effect - if identical to else

The if and the else branch code are identical - so the condition has no
effect on the effective code - this patch removes the condition and the
duplicated code.

Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@...dl.org>

v2: Review notes from Ian Abbott <abbotti@....co.uk> and Hartley Sweeten 
    <HartleyS@...ionengravers.com> confirm that the condition is not 
    needed and, as suggested, the misleading comment is completely removed.

Patch was only compile tested for x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_STAGING=y
CONFIG_COMEDI=m, COMEDI_ISA_DRIVERS=y, CONFIG_COMEDI_DT282X=m

Patch is against 3.19.0-rc7 (localversion = -next-20150204)
