[PATCH linux] ethtool: Remove redundant ret assignments

From: cgel . zte
Date: Thu Dec 30 2021 - 01:27:00 EST


From: luo penghao <luo.penghao@xxxxxxxxxx>

The assignment here will be overwritten, so it should be deleted

The clang_analyzer complains as follows:

net/ethtool/netlink.c:

Value stored to 'ret' is never read
