[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 3/8] net/qede: assume txq->sw_tx_ring[idx] is never null in qede_free_tx_pkt

[Balazs Nemeth <bnemeth@redhat.com>]

The ring txq->sw_tx_ring is managed with txq->sw_tx_cons. As long as
txq->sw_tx_cons is correct, there is no need to check if
txq->sw_tx_ring[idx] is null explicitly.
