Subject: [PATCH][next] cifs: remove redundant assignment to the variable match

The variable match is being assigned a value that is never read, it
is being re-assigned a new value later on. The assignment is redundant
and can be removed.

Cleans up clang scan-build warning:
fs/cifs/dfs_cache.c:1302:2: warning: Value stored to 'match' is never read
