Delete unnecessary local variable whose value is always 0 and that hides
the fact that the result is always 0.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that fixes this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

-ret = 0;
... when != ret = e

   Why not just "ret 0"?

OK, I wasn't sure if it was useful to keep the same number of arguments.
