[PATCH 15/21] thermal: cooling: avoid uninitialied used gcc warning

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Thu Apr 25 2013 - 13:32:38 EST


The newly rewritten get_property() function causes a bogus warning
from gcc-3.8, which cannot figure out that "level" is always
initialized at the point where it gets evaluated:

drivers/thermal/cpu_cooling.c: In function 'get_property':
drivers/thermal/cpu_cooling.c:189:37: warning: 'level' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
if (property == GET_FREQ && level == j) {
^

Slightly rearranging the code makes this more obvious and
avoids the warning.
