[PATCH 1/1] staging: olpc_dcon: Deletion of a check before backlight_device_unregister()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring at users.sourceforge.net>

The backlight_device_unregister() function tests whether its argument is NULL
and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
