From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The call to drm_dp_aux_init never returns an error code and there is no error return being assigned to variable ret. The check for an error in ret is always false since ret is still zero from the start of the function so the init error check and error message is redundant and can be removed.
