netfilter: conntrack: remove uninitialized shadow variable A recent commit introduced an unconditional use of an uninitialized variable, as reported in this gcc warning: net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c: In function '__nf_conntrack_confirm': net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:632:33: error: 'ctinfo' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] bytes = atomic64_read(&counter[CTINFO2DIR(ctinfo)].bytes); ^ net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:628:26: note: 'ctinfo' was declared here enum ip_conntrack_info ctinfo; The problem is that a local variable shadows the function parameter. This removes the local variable, which looks like what Pablo originally intended.
