Hi Guenter

Good catch. I'm surprised there is no compiler warning, possibly used
before set.

There was, actually. No idea how I missed that. Fengguang's build bots caught it.

I should have given proper credit.

Reported-by: kbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@intel.com>

For the curious, neither W=1, W=2, C-1, C=2, nor sparse report this problem,
at least not with gcc 4.9.1.

Good old gcc 4.1.2 (which I still use for m68k builds, and won't retire anytime
soon as it finds real bugs in every new kernel release) says:

    drivers/net/dsa/mv88e6xxx.c: In function ‘mv88e6xxx_set_port_state’:
    drivers/net/dsa/mv88e6xxx.c:905: warning: ‘ret’ may be used
uninitialized in this function

Even after your patch, as it missed one case (patch sent).

Grumble. So much for trusting tools :-(

Thanks for fixing this!
