As warned by smatch: drivers/media/dvb-frontends/mb86a16.c:1690 mb86a16_read_ber() error: uninitialized symbol 'timer'. drivers/media/dvb-frontends/mb86a16.c:1706 mb86a16_read_ber() error: uninitialized symbol 'timer'. There is a potential risk of doing a division by zero if timer is not handled well. Enforce it by setting a bit mask for the values used to select the timer. While here, optimize the logic to prevent uneeded tests.
