From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2016 09:34:41 +0000 Subject: [patch] regulator: lp3971: Silence uninitialized variable warning Message-Id: <20160414093441.GF16549@mwanda> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: Liam Girdwood Cc: Mark Brown , linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, kernel-janitors@vger.kernel.org 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.
