Subject: [PATCH][next] octeontx2-af: Remove redundant initialization of variable pin

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

The variable pin is being initialized with a value that is never
read, it is being updated later on in only one case of a switch
statement.  The assignment is redundant and can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
