`kdb_msg_write` operates on a global `struct kgdb_io *` called `dbg_io_ops`. It's initialized in `debug_core.c` and checked throughout the debug flow. There's a null check in `kdb_msg_write` which triggers static analyzers and gives the (almost entirely wrong) impression that it can be null. Coverity scanner caught this as CID 1465042. I have removed the unnecessary null check and eliminated false-positive forward null dereference warning.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
