From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr>

Delete unnecessary local variable whose value is always 0 and that hides
the fact that the result is always 0.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that fixes this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r exists@
local idexpression ret;
expression e;
position p;
@@

-ret = 0;
... when != ret = e
return 
- ret
+ 0
  ;
// </smpl>

Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr>

---
Alternatively, was an error code intended in the bad length case, as is
done in process_brxed_802_11_packet?

i guess lbs_deb_leave_args() is obsolet now.

    Why not just "ret 0"?

OK, I wasn't sure if it was useful to keep the same number of arguments.
But I will update it, since from the definition of lbs_deb_leave_args it
seems ok.

Oops, I won't make any change here, because Dan Williams has proposed
another patch that makes the ret variable useful.
