I agree with the coverity tool in that after the transformation (going through
the definition of MTK_M4U_TO_LARB) the check is pointless, but I think that the
right fix here is to check for validity of fwspec->ids[0] instead of simply
removing validation.

Having no validation after mtk_iommu_probe_device() is fine, but that's
because we assume that *this* function performs all validation steps.
