Subject: [PATCH] selinux: remove redundant assignment to len

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

The variable len is being set to zero and this value is never
being read since len is being set to a different value just
a few lines later.  Remove this redundant assignment. Cleans
up clang warning: Value stored to 'len' is never read
