Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: Remove redundant assignment of variable ret

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

The variable ret is being assigned a value that is never read, it is
updated later on with a different value. The assignment is redundant and
can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
