Subject: [PATCH][next] PCI: apple: Remove redundant initialization of pointer port_pdev

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

The pointer port_pdev is being initialized with a value that is never
read, it is being updated later on. The assignment is redundant and
can be removed.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
