Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: remove redundant assignment to ret

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

Variable ret is being initialized with a value that is never read and
ret is being re-assigned later on.  The initialization is redundant
and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
