Subject: [PATCH] aio: remove redundant assignment to variable ret
Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2019 12:07:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190822110705.19065-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The variable ret is being set to -EINVAL however this is never read
and later it is being reassigned to a new value. The assignment is
redundant and hence can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused Value")
