Subject: [PATCH] net: macb: Remove redundant assignment to w0

Variable w0 is set to zero but these values is not used as it is
overwritten later on, hence redundant assignment can be removed.

Cleans up the following clang-analyzer warning:

drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_main.c:3265:3: warning: Value stored
to 'w0' is never read [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores].

drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_main.c:3251:3: warning: Value stored
to 'w0' is never read [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores].
