The patch regulator: lp3971: Silence uninitialized variable warning
has been applied to the regulator tree at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 40e1d79ee16968bff7b3cf12c65d5740c02be1b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter <[email protected]> Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2016 12:34:41 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] regulator: lp3971: Silence uninitialized variable warning This is harmless but if lp3971_i2c_read() fails then "tmp" can be uninitialized. Silence the warning by moving the error handling up a line.
