Subject: [PATCH] [net/ipv6] Remove redundant null check in hbh_mt6
Date:   Wed, 24 Jun 2020 22:46:04 -0400
Message-Id: <20200625024605.2881-1-gaurav1086@gmail.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

oh cannot be NULL since its already checked above after
assignment and is being dereferenced before. Remove the
redundant null check.
