[PATCH] selftests: remove unused variable in close_range test

[PATCH] selftests: remove unused variable in close_range test

[Andrew Delgadilo]

From: Andrew Delgadillo <adelg@google.com>

commit 2c5db60e46ad ("tests: add close_range() tests") adds the
close_range test under the core namespace. In its current form, the
close_range test has an unused variable, namely, ret. For those building
with -Werror,-Wall, this breaks the build.

Without this patch:
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/ TARGETS=core V=1 CFLAGS="-Werror -Wall"
> make: Entering directory '/.../kernel-src/tools/testing/selftests'
> make[1]: Entering directory '/.../kernel-src/tools/testing/selftests/core'
> gcc -Werror -Wall    close_range_test.c  -o /.../kernel-src/tools/testing/selftests/core/close_range_test
> close_range_test.c: In function 'core_close_range':
> close_range_test.c:55:16: error: unused variable 'ret' [-Werror=unused-variable]
>   55 |         int i, ret;
>      |                ^~~

> make[1]: Leaving directory '/.../kernel-src/tools/testing/selftests/core'
> make: *** [Makefile:155: all] Error 2
> make: Leaving directory '/.../kernel-src/tools/testing/selftests'

With this patch:
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/ TARGETS=core V=1 CFLAGS="-Werror -Wall"
> make: Entering directory '/.../kernel-src/tools/testing/selftests'
