Subject: [for-next][PATCH 05/10] ring-buffer: Removed unnecessary if() goto out where out is the next
 line

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@...dmis.org>

In the function ring_buffer_discard_commit() there's an if statement that
jumps to the next line:

	if (rb_try_to_discard(cpu_buffer, event))
		goto out;
 out:

This was caused by the change that modified the way timestamps were taken
in interrupt context, and removed the code between the if statement and
the goto, but failed to update the conditional logic.
