Subject: [PATCH] wimax/i2400m: remove redundant assignment to variable result

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

Variable result is being assigned a value that is never read and result
is being re-assigned a little later on. The assignment is redundant
and hence can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Ununsed value")
