4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Christoph Hellwig <[email protected]> commit 5a1e59533380a3fd04593e4ab2d4633ebf7745c1 upstream. THIS_MODULE evaluates to NULL when used from code built into the kernel, thus breaking built-in transport modules. Remove the bogus check.
