Subject: [PATCH 2/7] USB-iowarrior: Delete unnecessary initialisations for the
 variable "dev"

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sun, 21 Aug 2016 13:26:09 +0200

The local variable "dev" was initialised despite of the detail
that it was immediately reassigned by the following statement.
Thus remove such unnecessary specifications.
