Subject: [PATCH] RDMA: remove useless condition in siw_create_cq()

Comparison of 'cq' with NULL is useless since
'cq' is a result of container_of and cannot be NULL
in any reasonable scenario.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Fixes: 303ae1cdfdf7 ("rdma/siw: application interface")
