FS-Cache: Remove unneeded null checks
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
fscache_write_op() makes unnecessary checks of the page variable to see if it
is NULL.  It can't be NULL at those points as the kernel would already have
crashed a little higher up where we examined page->index.

Furthermore, unless radix_tree_gang_lookup_tag() can return 1 but no page, a
NULL pointer crash should not be encountered there as we can only get there if
r_t_g_l_t() returned 1.
