Arrgh, I messed that one up real good...  Thank you for your keen eye Satyam :-)

It's not the common case, but this is certainly not the only place in the 
kernel where we do it.

Yeah, I should...

Here's an updated patch that actually works as intended.



In the iforce driver we currently get this warning

  drivers/input/joystick/iforce/iforce-packets.c: In function 
'iforce_get_id_packet':
  drivers/input/joystick/iforce/iforce-packets.c:249: warning: unused variable 
'status'

if CONFIG_JOYSTICK_IFORCE_USB is not defined.

The warning is easy to avoid by simply moving the variable inside
the only case in the switch that actually use it.
