[PATCH] brcm80211: remove redundant pointer 'address'

From: Colin King
Date: Sun Apr 05 2020 - 09:39:18 EST


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

Pointer 'address' is being assigned and updated in a few places
by it is never read. Hence the assignments are redundant and can
be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
