[PATCH] rtc: pfc8563: fix uninitialized variable warning

[Arnd Bergmann]

Gcc is unable to prove that alm_pending is always initialized
when it is used, so it prints a harmless warning:

drivers/rtc/rtc-pcf8563.c: In function 'pcf8563_probe':
drivers/rtc/rtc-pcf8563.c:449:5: warning: 'alm_pending' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]

This uses the same conditional expression that is used inside of
the pcf8563_get_alarm_mode() function, to help gcc figure it out
and shut up that warning, and make the ARM defconfigs build again
with no warnings.

Can you send that fix to Linus for the next 4.1 rc?

You can add my

I hope that will be the last one :)

Thanks!
