If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 05be8d4101d960bad271d32b4f6096af1ccb1534 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Leitner <dev@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 5 Apr 2016 15:03:48 +0200 Subject: iio: ak8975: fix maybe-uninitialized warning MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit From: Richard Leitner <dev@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 05be8d4101d960bad271d32b4f6096af1ccb1534 upstream. If i2c_device_id *id is NULL and acpi_match_device returns NULL too, then chipset may be unitialized when accessing &ak_def_array[chipset] in ak8975_probe. Therefore initialize chipset to AK_MAX_TYPE, which will return an error when not changed.
