RE: [PATCH linux-next] drm/amdgpu/vcn: Remove unused assignment in vcn_v4_0_stop

[AMD Official Use Only - General]

Then please update commit message, this change is due to "value r is never used, and remove unnecessary assignment", that makes sense to me.

Thanks

Hypothetically, some other thread might set adev->pg_flags NULL and in that case it will get the chance to go for /* wait for vcn idle */.

Regardless of that, this assignment to r is unnecessary. Because this
