[PATCH 20/26] [media] staging: as102: Remove redundant NULL checkbefore release_firmware() and pointless comments

From: Jesper Juhl
Date: Mon Apr 09 2012 - 16:51:48 EST


release_firmware() deals gracefullt with NULL pointers - it's
redundant to check for them before calling the function.

Also remove a few pointless comments - it's rather obvious from the
code that kfree() free's a buffer and that release_firmware() releases
firmware - comments just stating that add no value.
