[ldv-project] [PATCH v2] rdmavt: delete unnecessary NULL check

There is no need to check 'rdi->qp_dev' for NULL. The field 'qp_dev'
is created in rvt_register_device() which will fail if the 'qp_dev'
allocation fails in rvt_driver_qp_init(). Overwise this pointer
doesn't changed and passed to rvt_qp_exit() by the next step.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

v2: The remark about non-null value of 'rdi->qp_dev' by Leon Romanovsky <leon at kernel.org>
and Dennis Dalessandro <dennis.dalessandro at cornelisnetworks.com> was taken into account.
