Subject: [PATCH] mm/slab.c: clean code by removing redundant if condition
Date:   Wed, 16 Sep 2020 01:03:29 +0200

From: Mateusz Nosek <mateusznosek0@gmail.com>

The removed code was unnecessary and changed nothing in the flow, since
in case of returning NULL by 'kmem_cache_alloc_node' returning 'freelist'
from the function in question is the same as returning NULL.
