From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab mchehab@s-opensource.com

commit a9cb97c3e628902e37583d8a40bb28cf76522cf1 upstream.

As smatch warned: drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_frontend.c:2468 dvb_frontend_handle_ioctl() error: uninitialized symbol 'err'.

The ioctl handler actually got a regression here: before changeset d73dcf0cdb95 ("media: dvb_frontend: cleanup ioctl handling logic"), the code used to return -EOPNOTSUPP if an ioctl handler was not implemented on a driver. After the change, it may return a random value.
