    The rtems_configuration_get_user_multiprocessing_table() ? X : Y
    expressions can be simplified to X.


That does not preserve the semantics of the original. In the original
implementation, it could return NULL for an application configured
to be a single processor with no distributed multiprocessing in use.

The change gets rid of the warning but doesn't 'retain the intent.

If you think the original behaviour of rtems_configuration_get_user_multiprocessing_table() is important, then it should be documented and tested.
