brcmsmac: Drop unnecessary NULL check after container_of

The parameter passed to ai_detach() is guaranteed to never be NULL
because it is checked by the caller. Consequently, the result of
container_of() on it is also never NULL, and a NULL check on it
is unnecessary. Even without that, the NULL check would still be
unnecessary because the subsequent kfree() can handle NULL arguments.
On top of all that, it is misleading to check the result of container_of()
against NULL because the position of the contained element could change,
which would make the check invalid. Remove it.

This change was made automatically with the following Coccinelle script.
