4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit 8c3590de0a378c2449fc1aec127cc693632458e4 ] Inside function rt274_i2c_probe(), if regmap_read() function returns -EINVAL, then local variable "val" leaves uninitialized but used in if statement. This is potentially unsafe.
