Subject: [PATCH v5] staging: rtl8723bs: Prevent duplicate NULL tests on a
 value

When a value has been tested for NULL in an expression, a
second NULL test on the same value in another expression
is unnecessary when the value has not been assigned to NULL.

Remove unnecessary duplicate NULL tests on the same value
that has previously been tested.

Found by Coccinelle.

Changed in v4:
	- Separated initially integrated suggested change
	 "use modulo % 4096 over & 0xfff" to a different patch.
Changes in v3:
	- Changed other cases to use modulo (% 4096) over (& 0xofff).
	- Modified commit message to reflect these changes.
Changes in v2:
	- Dropped patch files for media drivers from patchset as it is
	  not meant for outreachy applicants.
	- Added full-stop aign to text in commit message.
	- Made code more readable by adding a line break.
	- Changed cases to use modulo (% 4096) over (& 0xfff).
Changes in v1
	- Patch for drivers/staging/media/av7110/sp8870.c and
	- drivers/staging/media/atomisp/pci/atomisp_gmin_platform.c
	  is split into two different patches in the patchset for use by the different
	  driver maintainers.
	- Added subject title for each of the separated patches.
	- Patch 1: Removed unnecessary curly braces {} initially inserted.
	- Patch 2: Unnecessary {} was also removed for v1.
