Subject: [PATCH][next] nexthop: remove redundant assignment to err
Date: Thu, 30 May 2019 16:57:54 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190530155754.31634-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The variable err is initialized with a value that is never read
and err is reassigned a few statements later. This initialization
is redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
