[PATCH] bpf: remove redundant assignment to pointer t

flat view
STALE1768d LANDED

From: Colin Ian King <hidden>
Date: 2021-12-07 22:47:24
Also in: bpf, kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Linus Torvalds

Landed in mainline as 73b6eae583f4 on 2021-12-09.

The pointer t is being initialized with a value that is never read. The
pointer is re-assigned a value a littler later on, hence the initialization
is redundant and can be removed.
