Subject: [PATCH linux-next] e1000: Remove redundant statement

This statement is redundant in the context, because there will be
an identical statement next. otherwise, the variable initialization
is actually unnecessary.

The clang_analyzer complains as follows:

drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000/e1000_ethtool.c:1218:2 warning:

Value stored to 'ctrl_reg' is never read.
