These changes are somewhat overzealous pointer verification, If
struct file * and/or struct inode * are NULL in a fops function your system is
already having a bad day. The only check that might be somewhat reasonable is
for gpu->funcs->get_param but that hook is defined on all targets so I don't
think it is unreasonable to assume that it should be there (and if it isn't the
unit test sure better catch it). We can safely drop these changes.
