Subject: [PATCH][next] bpf: remove redundant initialization of variable allow
Date: Tue, 17 Aug 2021 18:08:42 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210817170842.495440-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The variable allow is being initialized with a value that is never read, it
is being updated later on. The assignment is redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
