[PATCH v2] powerpc/kprobes: Remove redundant code

[Christophe Leroy]

At the time being we have something like

	if (something) {
		p = get();
		if (p) {
			if (something_wrong)
				goto out;
			...
			return;
		} else if (a != b) {
			if (some_error)
				goto out;
			...
		}
		goto out;
	}
	p = get();
	if (!p) {
		if (a != b) {
			if (some_error)
				goto out;
			...
		}
		goto out;
	}

This is similar to

	p = get();
	if (!p) {
		if (a != b) {
			if (some_error)
				goto out;
			...
		}
		goto out;
	}
	if (something) {
		if (something_wrong)
			goto out;
		...
		return;
	}

v2: Reverse the logic by testing (!p) before kprobe_running() as suggested by Naveen.
