I agree that the if-block is not needed and can be removed. However, I
cannot follow your reasoning in the commit message. Could you please
explain it in more detail.
The reason why I think that the 'if' can be removed is that the
expression can only be true when ck_cmdline = NULL. But with that the
last three lines are equivalent to
if (!ck_cmdline)
return ck_cmdline;
return ck_cmdline;
Which simply doesn't make any sense.
Thanks
Philipp
