Subject: [PATCH net 11/11] can: peak_usb: pcan_usb_fd_decode_status(): remove unnecessary test on the nullity of a pointer

From: Stephane Grosjean <s.grosjean@...k-system.com>

Since alloc_can_err_skb() puts NULL in cf in the case when skb cannot
be allocated and can_change_state() handles the case when cf is NULL,
the test on the nullity of skb is now unnecessary.
