Subject: [PATCH 4.4 11/91] [media] am437x-vpfe: always assign bpp variable

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Nicolas Iooss <nicolas.iooss_linux@....org>

commit 6ebf75774f823ddbdbd10921006989d4df222f4a upstream.

In vpfe_s_fmt(), when the sensor format and the requested format were
the same, bpp was assigned to vpfe->bpp without being initialized first.

Grab the bpp value that is currently used by using __vpfe_get_format()
instead of its wrapper, vpfe_try_fmt().

This use of uninitialized variable has been found by compiling the
kernel with clang.

Fixes: 417d2e507edc ("[media] media: platform: add VPFE capture driver
support for AM437X")
