   // remove the inner `if`.
-  const auto *BinOpCond = dyn_cast<BinaryOperator>(InnerIf->getCond());
+  const auto *BinOpCond = dyn_cast_or_null<BinaryOperator>(InnerIf->getCond());
+  if (!BinOpCond)

Nope.

`cast<>` asserts if the cast cannot be completed or if the cast input is null.
`dyn_cast<>` returns null if the cast cannot be completed and asserts if the 
cast input is null.
There are `_or_null` variants of each which will accept a null input without 
asserting.
