From 1ca47431c29c63ffc521e17bdc97be5472599776 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2020 12:16:15 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] net: dev_ioctl: remove redundant initialization of variable err The variable err is being initialized with a value that is never read and it is being updated later with a new value. The initialization is redundant and can be removed.
