Subject: [PATCH][next] ubifs: remove redundant assignment to pointer fname

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

The pointer fname rc is being assigned with a value that is never
read because the function returns after the assignment. The assignment
is redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
