Subject: [PATCH 18/29] IB/mlx4: Delete an unnecessary variable initialisation
 in mlx4_ib_add()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sat, 18 Feb 2017 15:52:31 +0100

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