Subject: [PATCH] rtc: meson: remove redundant assignment to variable retries

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

The variable retries is being initialized with a value that is never
read and it is being updated later with a new value in a for-loop.
The initialization is redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
