Subject: [PATCH][next] PCI: apple: Remove redundant initialization of pointer port_pdev

From: Colin Ian King <[email protected]>

The pointer port_pdev is being initialized with a value that is never
read, it is being updated later on. The assignment is redundant and
can be removed.

It looks like

port_pdev = pcie_find_root_port(pdev);

might've meant to read

port_pdev = pcie_find_root_port(port_pdev);

in which case the assignment would be used. I have no strong opinions
either way.

Full context for those following along at home:

```
static struct apple_pcie_port *apple_pcie_get_port(struct pci_dev *pdev)
{
struct pci_config_window *cfg = pdev->sysdata;
struct apple_pcie *pcie = cfg->priv;
struct pci_dev *port_pdev = pdev;
struct apple_pcie_port *port;

/* Find the root port this device is on */
port_pdev = pcie_find_root_port(pdev);

/* If finding the port itself, nothing to do */
if (WARN_ON(!port_pdev) || pdev == port_pdev)
return NULL;

list_for_each_entry(port, &pcie->ports, entry) {
if (port->idx == PCI_SLOT(port_pdev->devfn))
return port;
}

return NULL;
}
```
