Subject: [PATCH] iio: accel: mma9551_core: Prevent uninitialized variable in mma9551_read_status_word()

Smatch Warns: drivers/iio/accel/mma9551_core.c:357
	mma9551_read_status_word() error: uninitialized symbol 'v'.

When (offset >= 1 << 12) is true mma9551_transfer() will return -EINVAL
without 'v' being initialized, so check for the error and return.

Fixes: d5b97f5c7dfc ("iio: accel: mma9551: split driver to expose mma955x api")
Signed-off-by: Harshit Mogalapalli <harshit.m.mogalapalli@...cle.com>

This is detected using static analysis with smatch, and could probably
be detected by syzkaller fuzzing in future.
