[PATCH] Remove NULL pointer check for argument never passed asNULL.

From: Simon Holm Thøgersen
Date: Mon May 12 2008 - 11:28:18 EST


There is only palinfo_handle_smp as (indirect) user of palinfo_smp_call (by
way of smp_call_function_single) and surely palinfo_handle_smp never pass
NULL as parameter for info.
