Smatch complains that the error code is not set on this error path: drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand_base.c:842 nand_setup_interface() warn: missing error code 'ret' But actually returning success is intentional because the NAND chip will still work in mode 0. This patch adds a "ret = 0;" assignment to make the intent more clear and to silence the static checker warning. It doesn't affect the compiled code because GCC optimises the assignment away.
