The functions free_percpu() and module_put() test whether their argument
is NULL and then return immediately. Thus the test around the call is
not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

@IPVS folks: Since this involves a nf_tables specific chunk, ack your
chunks and I'll put this into nf-next to speed up things.

Thanks.

From: Markus Elfring <[email protected]>
Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2015 17:00:14 +0200

The module_put() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Thanks, applied to ipvs-next for v4.3.
