From: Dan Carpenter dan.carpenter@oracle.com

[ Upstream commit 92425c40676d498efccae6fecdb8f8e4dcf7e4a4 ]

Smatch warns that:

drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt_tc.c:160 bnxt_tc_parse_actions() error: uninitialized symbol 'rc'.

"rc" is either uninitialized or set to zero here so we can just remove the check.
