[lm-sensors] [PATCH 4/4] hwmon: (pmbus_core) Fix compiler warning

[Guenter Roeck]

Some configurations produce the following compiler warning:

drivers/hwmon/pmbus/pmbus_core.c: In function 'pmbus_show_boolean':
drivers/hwmon/pmbus/pmbus_core.c:752: warning: 'val' may be used uninitialized in this function

While this is a false positive, it can easily be fixed by overloading the return
value from pmbus_get_boolean with both val and error return code (val is a
boolean and thus never negative).
