[PATCH 1/2] coresight: stm: Remove redundant NULL checks

container_of() cannot return NULL, so the checks for NULL pointers are
unnecessary and can be safely removed.
As a result, this commit silences the following smatch warnings:
coresight-stm.c:345 stm_generic_link() warn: can 'drvdata' even be NULL?
coresight-stm.c:356 stm_generic_unlink() warn: can 'drvdata' even be NULL?
coresight-stm.c:387 stm_generic_set_options() warn: can 'drvdata' even be NULL?
coresight-stm.c:422 stm_generic_packet() warn: can 'drvdata' even be NULL?
