Subject: [PATCH] bpf: remove redundant assignment to pointer t
Date: Tue,  7 Dec 2021 22:47:18 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211207224718.59593-1-colin.i.king@gmail.com> (raw)

The pointer t is being initialized with a value that is never read. The
pointer is re-assigned a value a littler later on, hence the initialization
is redundant and can be removed.
