Subject: [PATCH 04/10] staging/irda/net: Delete an unnecessary variable
 initialisation in irlap_recv_discovery_xid_cmd()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Wed, 11 Oct 2017 22:18:34 +0200

The local variable "discovery" will only be used in a single if branch
of this function. Thus omit the explicit initialisation at the beginning.
