Building with -Wmaybe-uninitialized reveals the use on an uninitialized variable containing the physical address of the device whenever firmware before version 2 is used: drivers/staging/media/pulse8-cec/pulse8-cec.c: In function 'pulse8_connect': drivers/staging/media/pulse8-cec/pulse8-cec.c:447:2: error: 'pa' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] This sets the address to CEC_PHYS_ADDR_INVALID in this case, so we don't try to write back the uninitialized data to the device.
