reset: remove redundant null check on pointer dev
Pointer dev is being dereferenced when passed to the inlined functon dev_name, however, dev is later being null checked so at first this seems like a potential null pointer dereference. In fact, _reset_control_get_from_lookup is only ever called from __reset_control_get, right after checking dev->of_node hence dev can never be null. Clean this up by removing the redundant null check. Thanks to Philipp Zabel for spotting that dev can never be null.
