MIPS allmodconfig results in this warning:

sound/mips/hal2.c: In function 'hal2_gain_get':
sound/mips/hal2.c:224:35: error: 'r' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
sound/mips/hal2.c:223:35: error: 'l' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
sound/mips/hal2.c: In function 'hal2_gain_put':
sound/mips/hal2.c:260:13: error: 'new' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
sound/mips/hal2.c:260:13: error: 'old' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

It's easy enough to avoid by adding a 'default' clause to the switch
statements here. I assume that in practice no other case can happen,
but adding a default puts us on the safe side and shuts up the warnings.

Well, these cases are logical errors that must not happen, so
returning an error would be a "safer", IMO.

Agreed. I sent out a v2 now.
