Could you please explain why you would like to change this and how that
existing check would be redundant? This patch is just moving the check
to another place, not removing redundant code.. The existing
implementation looks correct and clearer that what would be there with
this patch applied. This function has multiple ways of setting the sddl
pointer and this existing check at the end verifies all those cases.
