Subject: [PATCH] csi: libcxgbi: remove redundant check and close on csk

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

csk is always null on the error return path and so the non-null
check and call to cxgbi_sock_closed on csk is redundant and
can be removed.

Detected by: CoverityScan CID#114329 ("Logically dead code")
