Subject: linux-next: build warning after merge of the tpmdd tree

Hi Jarkko,

After merging the tpmdd tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) produced this warning:

drivers/char/tpm/tpm_of.c: In function 'read_log_of':
drivers/char/tpm/tpm_of.c:37:8: warning: 'np' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
  sizep = of_get_property(np, "linux,sml-size", NULL);
        ^

Introduced by commit

  4a45d9669ac1 ("tpm: replace of_find_node_by_name() with dev of_node property")

This commit is just wrong :-(
