cfg80211: regulatory: remove a bogus initialization
The the __freq_reg_info() never returns NULL and the callers don't check for NULL. This initialization to set "reg_rule = NULL;" is just there to make GCC happy but it's not required in current GCCs. The problem is that Smatch sees the initialization and concludes that this function can return NULL so it complains that the callers are not checking for it. Smatch used to be able to parse this correctly but we recently changed the code from: - for (bw = MHZ_TO_KHZ(20); bw >= min_bw; bw = bw / 2) { + for (bw = MHZ_TO_KHZ(bws[i]); bw >= min_bw; bw = MHZ_TO_KHZ(bws[i--])) { Originally Smatch used to understand that this code always iterates through the loop once, but the change from "MHZ_TO_KHZ(20)" to "MHZ_TO_KHZ(bws[i])" is too complicated for Smatch.
