Subject: [PATCH] ACPI-EC: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call
 "acpi_ec_delete_query"

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2015 22:42:27 +0100

The acpi_ec_delete_query() 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.
