Subject: MIPS/readelf: Remove extraneous null GOT data check
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=919383ac718c2a3187ee2a9ad659daa22da26258;p=binutils-gdb.git

MIPS/readelf: Remove extraneous null GOT data check

Null data is handled gracefully throughout in MIPS GOT processing, with
addresses printed normally and unavailable data shown as `<unknown>' by
`print_mips_got_entry', and special processing code for GOT[1] doing an
explicit check.  Remove an unwanted null GOT data check then, introduced
with commit 592458412fb2 in the course of addressing PR binutils/12855.
