[PATCH] fs/ntfs3: Remove unused variable cnt in ntfs_security_init()

[Nathan Chancellor]

Clang warns:

fs/ntfs3/fsntfs.c:1874:9: warning: variable 'cnt' set but not used
[-Wunused-but-set-variable]
size_t cnt, off;
^
1 warning generated.

It is indeed unused so remove it.

Fixes: 82cae269cfa9 ("fs/ntfs3: Add initialization of super block")

I went back to the original patches to see if this was ever used;
since v2 (when the ntfs3 driver was split up) it was not. I triple
checked the v1 as well.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/caddbe41eaef4622...@paragon-software.com/
v1: https://dl.paragon-software.com/ntfs3/ntfs3.patch
I don't think there's a logic error here.

Looks like it was used for debugging or way before index_find_raw()
needed hint or something. So this should be ok.
