Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: nf_tables: remove redundant assignment of variable err
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2021 17:59:23 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210128175923.645865-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

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

The variable err is being assigned a value that is never read,
the same error number is being returned at the error return
path via label err1.  Clean up the code by removing the assignment.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
