[PATCH] staging: greybus: spilib: Remove the local unused

From: singh . supreet14

Date: Thu Aug 20 2026 - 06:33:03 EST


From: Supreet Singh <singh.supreet14@xxxxxxxxx>

The return value of spi_new_device() is only used to check whether
device creation succeeded. Remove the unnecessary local variable and
check the return value directly.
