Subject: [PATCH] pwm: fix used-uninitialized warning in pwm_get()

From: Stephen Warren <swarren@...dia.com>

This fixes:
drivers/pwm/core.c: In function 'pwm_get':
drivers/pwm/core.c:534:15: warning: 'index' may be used uninitialized in this function

The addition to the if condition at end of the function isn't strictly
necessary to solve the warning, but does make it more obvious that the
initialization of "index" to a dummy value isn't just hiding the
problem.
