[PATCH] fs/cifs/cifsacl: remove set but not used variable 'rc'

[Steve French]

Isn't it not used because of a potential bug - missing returning an
error in two cases.

If we leave the two lines you removed in - and set rc=0 in its
declaration (and return rc at the end as you originally had suggested)
- doesn't that solve the problem?  A minor modification to your first
proposed patch?
