Subject: [PATCH net-next] ipv6: Remove superfluous NULL pointer check in ipv6_local_rxpmtu

From: Steffen Klassert <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 11 Oct 2011 14:01:02 +0200

The pointer to mtu_info is taken from the common buffer
of the skb, thus it can't be a NULL pointer. This patch
removes this check on mtu_info.
