Subject: [PATCH] ntb: ntb_pingpong: remove redundant initialization of variables msg_data and spad_data

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

The variables msg_data and spad_data are being initialized with values
that are never read, they are being updated later on. The initializations
are redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
