From: Arnd Bergmann arnd@arndb.de
commit ea4348c8462a20e8b1b6455a7145d2b86f8a49b6 upstream.
Older versions of gcc warn about the tca8418_irq_handler function as they can't keep track of the variable assignment inside of the loop when using the -Wmaybe-unintialized flag:
drivers/input/keyboard/tca8418_keypad.c: In function ‘tca8418_irq_handler’: drivers/input/keyboard/tca8418_keypad.c:172:9: error: ‘reg’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] drivers/input/keyboard/tca8418_keypad.c:165:5: note: ‘reg’ was declared here
This is fixed in gcc-6, but it's possible to rearrange the code in a way that avoids the warning on older compilers as well.
