[ Upstream commit 1539c7f23f256120f89f8b9ec53160790bce9ed2 ]
Randconfig testing revealed a very old bug, with gcc-8:
sound/soc/intel/atom/sst/sst_loader.c: In function 'sst_load_fw': sound/soc/intel/atom/sst/sst_loader.c:357:5: error: 'fw' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] if (fw == NULL) { ^ sound/soc/intel/atom/sst/sst_loader.c:354:25: note: 'fw' was declared here const struct firmware *fw;
We must check the return code of request_firmware() before we look at the pointer result that may be uninitialized when the function fails.
