[PATCH][next] xen/gntdev: remove redundant non-zero check on ret
From: Colin King
Date: Mon Nov 11 2019 - 07:20:22 EST
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The non-zero check on ret is always going to be false because
ret was initialized as zero and the only place it is set to
non-zero contains a return path before the non-zero check. Hence
the check is redundant and can be removed.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Logically dead code")
