[PATCH] netfilter: ip6_tables: remove redundant assignment to e

From: Colin Ian King <redacted>

The assignment to variable e is redundant since the same assignment
occurs just a few lines later, hence it can be removed.  Cleans up
clang warning: warning: Value stored to 'e' is never read

Seems like net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c also has exactly the same
redundant assignment, see mark_source_chains() there.

If we can fix this all iptables spots in one go, the best. Please,
also check arp_tables and ebtables.

Thanks!
