Subject: [PATCH] af_unix: __unix_find_socket_byname() cleanup

Remove pointless return variable dance.

Appears vestigial from when the function did locking as seen in
unix_find_socket_byinode(), but locking is handled in
unix_find_socket_byname() for __unix_find_socket_byname().

Applied to net-next.
