[PATCH][next] iio: Fix uninitialized variable ret

From: Colin King
Date: Fri Oct 15 2021 - 11:33:01 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When !iio_buffer_space_available(rb) is true and signal_pending(current)
is false the end of the do-while loop is reached and the uninitialized
variable ret is zero checked. Fix this by initializing variable ret to
zero.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: ffabbffd40f2 ("iio: Add output buffer support")
