[PATCH v2] phy: tegra: Remove self cast in tegra_xusb_port_find_lane

[PATCH v2] phy: tegra: Remove self cast in tegra_xusb_port_find_lane

[Nathan Chancellor]

Clang warns about casting variables to themselves because it is rarely
necessary. Removing the cast should not change anything regarding the
code and silences the warning.

../drivers/phy/tegra/xusb.c:421:11: warning: explicitly assigning value
of variable of type 'const struct tegra_xusb_lane_map *' to itself
[-Wself-assign]
        for (map = map; map->type; map++) {
             ~~~ ^ ~~~

I am not entirely sure if this is the correct solution, especially since
I don't have the hardware and I am not too familiar with this code. If
there is a better solution, please let me know.

An equivalent patch seems to already have been merged. See:

	https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10072641/

You can avoid duplication of effort such as this by basing any patches
you send on top of a recent linux-next. The above patch, for example,
was added in next-20180223.

Thanks,
Thierry

Hi Thierry,

Thanks for the response. My apologies for not basing on linux-next; I
thought I did a cursory glance at both the phy and tegra trees but
apparently I didn't do it close enough. Definitely won't make the same
mistake again.

Cheers!
Nathan
