Variable ret is set to '-EINVAL' but this value is never read as it is
overwritten later on, hence it is a redundant assignment and can be
removed.

Clean up the following clang-analyzer warning:

drivers/target/target_core_configfs.c:2037:5: warning: Value stored to
'ret' is never read [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores].

drivers/target/target_core_configfs.c:1973:5: warning: Value stored to

I don't think storing -EINVAL in ret is wrong. But maybe the "break" in
the next line should better be "goto out"?

AFAICS, the "break" finally leads to calling
core_scsi3_alloc_aptpl_registration () despite a too long string in
i_port, isid or t_port. Is this behaviour intentional?

BTW: why is "initiator_sid" input handled as string?
core_scsi3_alloc_aptpl_registration later calls get_unaligned_be64 for
that string. I don't think this makes sense.

Finally, I think there is a possible memory leak. If the input written
to res_aptpl_metadata for example contains "initiator_sid=xxxxx" more
than once, a previously created string isid ("isid = match_strdup(args)")
is not freed before it is overwritten in the loop. The same is true for
all tokens handled with match_strdup.
