Subject: [PATCH][next] media: dvb-frontends: Remove redundant error check on variable ret

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

An earlier commit removed a call to lgdt3306a_spectral_inversion and
omitted to remove the error return check. The check on ret is now
redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Logically dead code")
Fixes: d4a3fa6652e3 ("media: dvb-frontends: lgdt3306a.c: remove dead code")
