From 95c9ae14a9b99a65956de80a1eefafcb901c0e9f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2020 19:14:25 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm/process_vm_access: remove redundant initialization of iov_r The pointer iov_r is being initialized with a value that is never read and it is being updated later with a new value. The initialization is redundant and can be removed.
