The IS_ERR()/PTR_ERR() combination confuses gcc to the point that it cannot prove the upstream_ep variable to be initialized: drivers/staging/media/imx/imx-media-csi.c: In function 'csi_link_validate': drivers/staging/media/imx/imx-media-csi.c:1025:20: error: 'upstream_ep' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] priv->upstream_ep = upstream_ep; ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/staging/media/imx/imx-media-csi.c:1026:24: error: 'upstream_ep.bus_type' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] is_csi2 = (upstream_ep.bus_type == V4L2_MBUS_CSI2); ~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~ drivers/staging/media/imx/imx-media-csi.c:127:19: error: 'upstream_ep.bus.parallel.bus_width' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] I could come up with no good way to rewrite this function, as a last resort, this adds an explicit zero-intialization of the structure.
