The pointer fields is being assigned a value that is never read, the
pointer is re-assigned a new value in for-loops that occur later on.
The assignment is redundant and can be removed.

Clean up clang scan build warning:
drivers/hid/hid-core.c:1665:30: warning: Although the value stored
to 'field' is used in the enclosing expression, the value is never
actually read from 'field' [deadcode.DeadStores]
