[PATCH v2] x86: remove redundant check for kmem_cache_create()

From: Chengguang Xu
Date: Tue Jun 12 2018 - 07:49:46 EST


The flag 'SLAB_PANIC' implies panic when encouter failure,
So there is no need to check NULL pointer for cache creation.

v1->v2:
- Keep return type as int instead of changing to void.
