It's not about the tool...  Ignore the tool when it's wrong.  But I do
think the code is slightly more clear without the else statement.

Arguments could be made either way.  Removing the else statement means
we set dev->em_pd twice...  But I *personally* lean vaguely towards
removing the else statement.  :P

That would make the warning go away as well.
