Subject: [PATCH] coresight: cti: Remove unnecessary NULL check in cti_sig_type_name

Clang warns:

drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti-sysfs.c:948:11: warning:
address of array 'grp->sig_types' will always evaluate to 'true'
[-Wpointer-bool-conversion]
        if (grp->sig_types) {
        ~~  ~~~~~^~~~~~~~~
1 warning generated.

sig_types is at the end of a struct so it cannot be NULL.

Fixes: 85b6684eab65 ("coresight: cti: Add connection information to sysfs")
