[PATCH 5/5] ATM-nicstar: Refactor a dev_alloc_skb() call in dequeue_rx()

From: SF Markus Elfring

The script "checkpatch.pl" can point out that assignments should usually
not be performed within condition checks.
Thus move an assignment for a local variable to a separate statement
in this function.
