Subject: [PATCH][next] mfd: timberdale: remove redundant assignment to variable err

The variable err is being assigned -ENODEV and then err is being
re-assigned the same error value via the error exit label err_mfd.
The assignment is redundant and can be removed.

Cleans up clang scan build warning:
drivers/mfd/timberdale.c:768:3: warning: Value stored to 'err' is
never read [deadcode.DeadStores]
