Subject: [PATCH][V2] staging: rtl8723bs: hal: remove redundant variable n

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

The variable n is being assigned a value that is never read inside
an if statement block, the assignment is redundant and can be removed.
With this removed, n is only being used for a constant loop bounds
check, so replace n with that value instead and remove n completely.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

V2: remove the variable n completely, thanks to Dan Carpenter for
    spotting this.
