Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 1/2] rcu: Remove unnecessary condition check in rcu_qsctr_help()
From: Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@...hat.com>
When the ->curtail and ->donetail pointers differ, ->rcucblist
always points to the beginning of the current list and thus
cannot be NULL. Therefore, the check ->rcucblist != NULL is
redundant and this commit removes it.
