Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: core: timer: remove redundant assignment
Git-commit: 63632563c0dfe036215dcba222a0f899d35f7be6
Patch-mainline: v5.10-rc1
References: git-fixes

Cppcheck complains about a possible NULL pointer dereference but it
actually looks like the NULL assignment is not needed (same loop is
used in other parts of the file without it).
