I wasn't getting this warning when I was building the driver. This
happened because -Wmaybe-uninitialized is suppressed when
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is selected
(Commit?e74fc973b6e531fef1fce8b101ffff05ecfb774c "Turn off -Wmaybe-
uninitialized when building with -Os").

A recent gcc version like 5.3.1 doesn't seem to produce much false
positives. May it make sense to revert that commit?

The gcc-5.3.1 log for reference.
