I've struggled with this kind of warning when reworking wm8960
bitclock computation.
Anyhow, for this exact patch the warning didn't showed up.
I used:
gcc version 6.2.1 20161016 (Linaro GCC 6.2-2016.11)
My next patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9666921/ [1]
which is under review, had the issue you mention (in v1)
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/4/5/246
but I initialized best_freq_out with 0 to get rid of the problem.

I think the compiler is tricked into thinking that best_freq_out might
be uninitialized. Notice
that each time *bclk_idx is assigned a value (which is always >=0) we
also initialize best_freq_out.

Your idea looks good, will need to rework my follow up patch on it:
