[PATCH 2/6] trace syscalls: Remove redundant syscall_nr checks

From: Ian Munsie
Date: Mon Dec 06 2010 - 23:29:52 EST


From: Ian Munsie <imunsie@xxxxxxxxxxx>

With the ftrace events now checking if the syscall_nr is valid upon
initialisation, there is no need to verify it when registering and
unregistering the events, so remove the check.
