Subject: [PATCH] integrity: remove redundant initialization of variable ret
Git-commit: 3db0d0c276a752af39beb5ca7424cb659aa005bb
Patch-mainline: v5.9-rc1
References: git-fixes

The variable ret is being initialized with a value that is never read
and it is being updated later with a new value.  The initialization is
redundant and can be removed.
