Subject: [PATCH] iio: accel: mma9551_core: Prevent uninitialized variable in mma9551_read_config_word()
Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2023 07:36:09 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230126153610.3586243-1-harshit.m.mogalapalli@oracle.com> (raw)

Smatch Warns:
drivers/iio/accel/mma9551_core.c:299
	mma9551_read_config_word() error: uninitialized symbol 'v'.

When (offset >= 1 << 12) is true mma9551_transfer() will return -EINVAL
without 'v' being initialized, so check for the error and return.

Fixes: 40cb761306d6 ("iio: add driver for Freescale MMA9553")
