Subject: [PATCH][next] net: hns3: remove redundant null check of an array

From: Colin Ian King <[email protected]>

The null check of filp->f_path.dentry->d_iname is redundant because
it is an array of DNAME_INLINE_LEN chars and cannot be a null. Fix
this by removing the null check.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Array compared against 0")
Fixes: 04987ca1b9b6 ("net: hns3: add debugfs support for tm nodes, priority and qset info")
