staging: r8188eu: clean up NULL check for rcu pointer
Clean up the NULL check for padapter->pnetdev->rx_handler_data. The current code calls rcu_dereference while it holds the rcu read lock and checks the pointer after releasing the lock. An rcu pointer may only be used between calls to rcu_read_lock and rcu_read_unlock. Replace the check with rcu_access_pointer. My understanding is that this function returns the value of the pointer and needs no locking. We can then check the pointer but we must not dereference it.
