The call netdev_{put, hold} of dev_{put, hold} will check NULL,
so there is no need to check before using dev_{put, hold},
remove it to silence the warning:
./net/rose/rose_route.c:619:2-10: WARNING: NULL check before dev_{put, hold} functions is not needed.

# Form letter - net-next is closed
The merge window for v6.3 has begun and therefore net-next is closed
for new drivers, features, code refactoring and optimizations.
We are currently accepting bug fixes only.
Please repost when net-next reopens after Mar 6th.
RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time.
