I think this is the only user of the variable "ret", so can you remove its
declaration at the top of this function too?

  CC [M]  fs/nfs/nfs4file.o
fs/nfs/nfs4file.c: In function ‘nfs4_copy_file_range’:
fs/nfs/nfs4file.c:136:10: error: unused variable ‘ret’ [-Werror=unused-variable]
  ssize_t ret;
          ^~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Thanks,
Anna
