In the current implementation, the local variable field_value is used without prior initialization, which may lead to reading uninitialized memory. Specifically, in the macro set_mask_bits, the initial (potentially uninitialized) value of the buffer is copied into old__, and a mask is applied to calculate new__. A similar issue was resolved in commit 6ee2a7058fea ("iio: accel: bma400: Fix smatch warning based on use of unintialized value."). Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
