Subject: [PATCH] arm64: paravirt: remove conduit check in has_pv_steal_clock
Date:   Fri,  4 Nov 2022 06:16:59 +0000
Message-Id: <20221104061659.4116508-1-usama.arif@bytedance.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Precedence: bulk

arm_smccc_1_1_invoke() which is called later on in the function
will return failure if there's no conduit (or pre-SMCCC 1.1),
hence the check is unnecessary.
