[PATCH 1/2] fs/ntfs3: Remove a useless test in 'indx_find()'

[PATCH 1/2] fs/ntfs3: Remove a useless test in 'indx_find()'

[Christophe JAILLET]

'fnd' has been dereferenced several time before, so testing it here is
pointless.
Moreover, all callers of 'indx_find()' already have some error handling
code that makes sure that no NULL 'fnd' is passed.

So, remove the useless test.

[PATCH 2/2] fs/ntfs3: Remove a useless shadowing variable

[Christophe JAILLET]

There is already a 'u8 mask' defined at the top of the function.
There is no need to define a new one here.

Remove the useless and shadowing new 'mask' variable.
