PATCH 1/1 fscache: remove unneeded null checks

Quoted 5 lines · David Howells

radix_tree_gang_lookup_tag() finds pages in the tree that have a particular tag set, and returns the number of pages it has selected. If that number is != 1, then I don't proceed with accessing the array.

So I think the tests of page later are unnecessary.

Yep. I think so too.
