[PATCH] sctp: remove redundant initialization of variable status

From: Colin King
Date: Fri Jul 24 2020 - 08:18:07 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The variable status 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.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
