Subject: [PATCH][next] pwm: core: remove redundant assignment to pointer pwm
Date:   Tue,  6 Jul 2021 16:11:32 +0100

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

The pointer pwm is being initialized with a value that is never read and
it is being updated later with a new value. The initialization is
redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
