This check is historical and no longer needed, wait_address is never NULL. These days we rely on the poll_table->_qproc check. NULL if select/poll is not going to sleep, or it already has a data to report, or all waiters have already been registered after the 1st iteration. However, poll_table *p can be NULL, see p9_fd_poll() for example, so we can't remove the "p != NULL" check.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
