   Example migrated from Codex:

   Add a “No role” option that sets users’ roles to nothing on pages other than the user profile screen (where it already exists):

   add_filter('editable_roles', 'add_empty_editable_role');
   
   <?php
   function add_empty_editable_role($all_roles) {
       $screen = get_current_screen();
   
       if (! (isset($all_roles['']) || 'user-edit' == $screen->id)) {
           $all_roles[''] = array(
               'name' => __('— No role for this site —'),
               'capabilities' => array(),
               );
       }
   
       return $all_roles;
   }
