Pointer pexec is being assigned a value however it is never read. The

It does look like pexec is not used in this function after it was refactored.  Shouldn't the declaration at the beginning of the function also be removed?

Yeah we should remove the declaration as well. Although it is used some where to calculate its size i.e. sizeof(*pexec). We need to directly use the type in sizeof() i.e. sizeof(struct qaic_partial_execute_entry).
