Inside function snvs_rtc_enable(), variable "lpcr" could be uninitialized if regmap_read() returns -EINVAL. However,"lpcr" is used later in the if statement, which is potentially unsafe. Similar cases happened in function snvs_rtc_irq_handler() with variable "lpsr" and function snvs_rtc_read_alarm() with variables "lptar", "lpsr". The patch for those two are not easy since -EINVAL is not an acceptable return value for these functions.
