From: Tom Rix <trix@xxxxxxxxxx> Static analysis reports this problem firmware.c:709:6: warning: Branch condition evaluates to a garbage value if (ret) { ^~~ In brcmf_fw_get_firmwares(), ret is only set if the alt_path control flow is taken. Initialize ret to -1, so the canonical path is taken if alt_path is not.
