[PATCH] staging: ks7010: Remove initialisation

[Nishka Dasgupta]

The initial value of return variable ret is never used, so it can be
removed.
Issue found with Coccinelle.

You should get rid of the result variable completely and just use "ret"
instead.  No need for two variables.

I saw two patches with the same subject line, if I messed up, please
resend.

Ah, didn't realize that was a valid spelling, sorry.

I sent two patches about removing initialisation in ks7010 today, but I 
couldn't make it a patch series because the different files had 
different maintainers. I don't think I've sent this patch before, but 
it's possible I made a mistake because my local tree has not been the 
best organised lately. I apologise for the confusion.

Is this about "initialise" (and now also "organised", "apologise", etc)? 
As far as I'm aware whether the word ends in "-ise"/"-ize" depends on 
local varieties of English, so I went with the variety I'm more used to. 
Should I stick with American/Canadian spelling variants (including "-or" 
over "-our" etc) from now on?

Didn't you already send this?

And please run a spell-checker on your subject line when you resend
this :)

As the initial value of the return variable result is never used, it can
be removed.
