From: Tom Rix <trix@xxxxxxxxxx> clang static analysis flags this error sil-sii8620.c:184:2: warning: Undefined or garbage value returned to caller [core.uninitialized.UndefReturn] return ret; ^~~~~~~~~~ sii8620_readb calls sii8620_read_buf. sii8620_read_buf can return without setting its output pararmeter 'ret'. So initialize ret.
