From: Tom Rix <trix@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 915593a7a663b2ad08b895a5f3ba8b19d89d4ebf upstream. Clang static analysis reports this issue interface.c:810:8: warning: Passed-by-value struct argument contains uninitialized data now = rtc_tm_to_ktime(tm); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ tm is set by a successful call to __rtc_read_time() but its return status is not checked. Check if it was successful before setting the enabled flag. Move the decl of err to function scope.
