Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: Delete redundant length check
Git-commit: a7c9acc452b21b56c99dd7dfe0ab542f7baa6563
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
References: FATE#326294
brcmf_fweh_process_event() sets event->datalen to the
endian-swapped value of event_packet->msg.datalen, which is the
same as emsg.datalen. This length is already validated in
brcmf_fweh_process_event(), so there is no need to check it
again upon dequeuing the event.
