Re: [PATCH] radio-si470x-common: -EINVAL overwritten in si470x_vidioc_s_tuner()

[Tobias Lorenz]

Hello Roel,

no, the default value of retval makes no difference to the function.

Retval is set by si470x_disconnect_check and si470x_set_register.
After each call, retval is checked.
There is no need to reset it passed.

The only reason, there is a default value is my static code checker, saying variables should have default values.
Setting it to -EINVAL seems more reasonable to me than setting it 0.
In fact the patch would bring up the warning on setting default values again.

Bye,
Toby
