Subject: [PATCH] rtlwifi: remove redundant assignment to variable err
Date:   Sat, 27 Mar 2021 23:00:14 +0000

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

Variable err is assigned -ENODEV followed by an error return path
via label error_out that does not access the variable and returns
with the -ENODEV error return code. The assignment to err is
redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
