Subject: [PATCH 5.4 313/320] net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: fix error checking in mtk_mac_config()

From: Tom Rix <trix@...hat.com>

commit 214b3369ab9b0a6f28d6c970220c209417edbc65 upstream.

Clang static analysis reports this problem
mtk_eth_soc.c:394:7: warning: Branch condition evaluates
  to a garbage value
                if (err)
                    ^~~

err is not initialized and only conditionally set.
So intitialize err.
