[PATCH] drivers: net: smc91x: remove redundant initialization of pointer gpio

From: Colin King <hidden>
Date: 2021-03-26 19:29:38

From: Colin Ian King <redacted>

The pointer gpio is being initialized with a value that is
never read and it is being updated later with a new value. The
initialization is redundant and can be removed.
