Hi Wolfram,

Yes, cppcheck pointed it out correctly. The assignment on the variable
'ret' is not needed at there. Actually, the code should not be wrapped
using I2C_SLAVE because a bus can also be in multi-master environment
even when slave is not enabled. So the warning can be removed by below
fix.

The reason of adding changes at line 658 and 667 is to remove below
cppcheck warning when the change at 694 is applied.

[drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-aspeed.c:670]: (style) The scope of the variable 
'ret' can be reduced.

Can you please apply above changes on top of this patch? Or I can submit
v2 with it.

Thanks,
Jae
