It looks like ov7670_read() subroutines both convert > 0 returns to 0.
Setting gain, and similar cases, to 0 means it is ok the setting side effect. maybe it would be ok if this was a void return or there was some known poison value. I did not look into that. There are other routines that are more than a simple get() and i wanted to use the same fix for all of them.
yeah on clang static analysis making it into kbuild! I have been doing these fixes for a couple of months. with a just-built clang, i run 'scan-build make randomconfig', 'scan-build make', then run scan-view on the html. the randomconfig accounts for the very scattered fixes i have posted. generally i would say kernel is doing pretty well, maybe 20 to 1 false to real problems.
