[PATCH] apparmor: remove unused variable

[PATCH] apparmor: remove unused variable

[Arnd Bergmann]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The local 'sock' variable has become unused after a change to the
aa_sock_file_perm() calling conventions:

security/apparmor/file.c: In function '__file_sock_perm':
security/apparmor/file.c:544:24: error: unused variable 'sock' [-Werror=unused-variable]
  544 |         struct socket *sock = (struct socket *) file->private_data;

Remove it here.

That's interesting.  The aa_sock_file_perm() further in will
still trip the AA_BUG(!sock) if there's some shenanigans going
on so no big loss in dropping the AA_BUG.

AA_BUG(X, args) extends to
	AA_BUG_FMT((X), "" args);
which is
	#define AA_BUG_FMT(X, fmt, args...) no_printk(fmt, ##args)

if CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR_DEBUG_ASSERTS=n. That means the first
parameter is dropped and sock is indeed unused in that case.

yeah, unfortunately Nathan beat you by a few hours with
   [PATCH] apparmor: remove unused variable

and since I am walking the backlog in time order I pulled his version of the patch.

All the same thanks for taking the time to fix this, it is much appreciated
