[PATCH] platform/x86: drop unneeded assignment in host_control_smi()

From: Yang Li
Date: Tue Apr 27 2021 - 07:32:05 EST


Making '==' operation with ESM_STATUS_CMD_UNSUCCESSFUL directly
after calling the function inb() is more efficient, so assignment
to 'cmd_status' is redundant.

Eliminate the following clang_analyzer warning:
drivers/platform/x86/dell/dcdbas.c:397:11: warning: Although the value
stored to 'cmd_status' is used in the enclosing expression, the value is
never actually read from 'cmd_status'

No functional change.
