From: Arnd Bergmann arnd@arndb.de
commit e70dda0868fad0f74c46df21f7f45fec24f29879 upstream.
pci_read_config_word() might fail and not initialize its output, as pointed out by older versions of gcc when using the -Wmaybe-unintialized flag:
drivers/mtd/maps/ichxrom.c: In function ‘ichxrom_cleanup’: drivers/mtd/maps/ichxrom.c:63:2: error: ‘word’ is used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized]
This is apparently a correct warning, though it does not show up with newer compilers. Changing the code to not attempt to write back uninitialized data into PCI config space is a correct fix for the problem and avoids the warning.
