netfilter: nf_tables: eliminate useless condition checks
The return value of nf_tables_table_lookup() is valid pointer or one pointer error. There are two cases: 1) IS_ERR(table) is true, it would return the error or reset the table as NULL, it is unnecessary to perform the latter check "table != NULL". 2) IS_ERR(obj) is false, the table is one valid pointer. It is also unnecessary to perform that check. The nf_tables_newset() and nf_tables_newobj() have same logic codes. In summary, we could move the block of condition check "table != NULL" in the else block to eliminate the original condition checks.
