Subject: [PATCH] Cypress WestBridge OMAP3430 Kernel Hal: Remove unneeded
 local variables from alloc functions

Hi,

In 
drivers/staging/westbridge/astoria/arch/arm/mach-omap2/cyashalomap_kernel.c
the local variables 'ret_p' are not needed and should just go away.

I have no way to test this code, but I believe the change is obviously 
correct. Please consider it.
