Fixes the following W=1 kernel build warning(s):

 drivers/thunderbolt/dma_port.c: In function ‘dma_port_flash_write_block’:
 drivers/thunderbolt/dma_port.c:331:6: warning: variable ‘ret’ set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

A script opens up the file on the warning line.

The patch is hand-written.

I've been careful not to change the semantics of the code.

The return value has never been checked since the driver's inception 4
years ago.

However, if this is an oversight and the intention was to check the
value and error-out during a failure condition, I can make that
happen.

I would need a nod from the author before I make such a change.

It's actually an oversight from my side. It should do something like:

  if (ret)
  	return ret:

there. Feel free to fix it up :)

Thanks!
