Subject: [PATCH net] ipv6: mcast: Remove redundant comparison in
  igmp6_mcf_get_next()

The 'state->im' value will always be non-zero after
the 'while' statement, so the check can be removed.

Found by InfoTeCS on behalf of Linux Verification Center
(linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
