d0edd852 ("ipc: convert invalid scenarios to use WARN_ON") relaxed the nil dst parameter check, originally being a full BUG_ON. However, this check seems quite unnecessary when the only purpose is for ceckpoint/restore (MSG_COPY flag): o The copy variable is set initially to nil, apparently as a way of ensuring that prepare_copy is previously called. Which is in fact done, unconditionally at the beginning of do_msgrcv. o There is no concurrency with 'copy' (stack allocated in do_msgrcv). Furthermore, any errors in 'copy' (and thus prepare_copy/copy_msg) should always handled by IS_ERR() family. Therefore remove this check altogether as it can never occur with the current users.
