    crypto/bio/bf_buff.c: drop extraneous ctx NULL check in buffer_ctrl()

    b->ptr cannot be NULL, so, the check is not needed, drop it.
    Reported by Coverity as a potential NULL dereference in ctx->ibuf_len
    access.

    Resolves: https://scan5.scan.coverity.com/#/project-view/65248/10222?selectedIssue=1680636
    Fixes: f17230ae6c9f "Fix of EOF and retry handling in BIO implementations"
