[PATCH 3/3] auxdisplay: img-ascii-lcd: Silence 2 uninitialized warnings
From: Miguel Ojeda
Date: Mon Feb 19 2018 - 11:10:15 EST
The warnings are:
drivers/auxdisplay/img-ascii-lcd.c: warning: 'err' may be used
uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
At lines 109 and 207. Reported by Geert using the build service
several times, e.g.:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/19/303
They are two false positives, since num_chars > 0 in the three present
configurations (boston, malta, sead3). Initializing to an error state by
default silences the warning and makes the code print an error in case a
num_chars == 0 happens in the future (unlikely, since it does not make
sense currently).
The warnings seem to disappear starting with gcc >= 4.9
