Subject: net: tap: remove redundant null pointer check before kfree_skb
Patch-mainline: v4.20-rc1
Git-commit: 144a6adfa1435e6235fd55b700d2c9f93345bb7f
References: bsc#1109837

kfree_skb has taken the null pointer into account. hence it is safe
to remove the redundant null pointer check before kfree_skb.
