Subject: [PATCH 8/9] memstick: Delete an unnecessary variable initialisation
 in msb_read_boot_blocks()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sat, 7 Jan 2017 20:02:24 +0100

The local variable "pba" will be set to an appropriate value a bit later.
Thus omit the explicit initialisation at the beginning.
