Subject: [PATCH 3.2 102/147] ASoC: wm_hubs: Silence reg_r and reg_l 'may
 be used uninitialized' warnings

3.2.95-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tim Gardner <tim.gardner@...onical.com>

commit 1f5353e765fe2a1168477bfe55e4dd7cdd96b477 upstream.

Return an error from wm_hubs_read_dc_servo() if hubs->dcs_readback_mode is not
correctly initialized. You might as well bail out since nothing is likely to
work correctly afterwards.

sound/soc/codecs/wm_hubs.c:321:11: warning: 'reg_r' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
sound/soc/codecs/wm_hubs.c:251:13: note: 'reg_r' was declared here
sound/soc/codecs/wm_hubs.c:322:11: warning: 'reg_l' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
sound/soc/codecs/wm_hubs.c:251:6: note: 'reg_l' was declared here

gcc version 4.6.3

[bwh: Backported to 3.2: There's no separate wm_hubs_read_dc_servo() function,
 so return directly from calibrate_dc_servo().]
