Subject: [PATCH] staging: greybus: spilib: Remove the local unused
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 16:02:35 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260820103235.12306-1-singh.supreet14@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Supreet Singh <singh.supreet14@gmail.com>

The return value of spi_new_device() is only used to check whether
device creation succeeded. Remove the unnecessary local variable and
check the return value directly.
