I was not aware that this code is so old. This fix was made after checkpatc=
h reported assignment inside an if-statement.
Please ignore this patch if th change is not necessary as the code is proba=
bly not being used anywhere :)

Maybe the code has to be marked as obsolete in the MAINTAINERS file to prev=
ent patches being sent?

These were only intended for a clean-up job, the idea of this function came=
 from how PCI handles procfs.
Maybe those should be changed?
