mfd: db8500: Avoid uninitialized variable reference The prcmu_config_clkout() function ensures that the 'clkout' argument can only be '0' or '1' using an appropriate BUG_ON(), so the compiler should know that the div_mask, mask, and bits variables are always initialized later on. However, it doesn't understand this in gcc-5.2 and produces a false positive warning instead: drivers/mfd/db8500-prcmu.c: In function 'prcmu_config_clkout': drivers/mfd/db8500-prcmu.c:762:10: error: 'div_mask' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] if (val & div_mask) { ^ drivers/mfd/db8500-prcmu.c:769:13: error: 'mask' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] if ((val & mask & ~div_mask) != bits) { ^ drivers/mfd/db8500-prcmu.c:757:7: error: 'bits' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] Replacing the switch() statement with an equivalent if() lets gcc figure this out reliably and avoids the warnings.
