Arnd Bergmann 7cca9a9851 cpufreq: amd-pstate: avoid uninitialized variable use
The new epp support causes warnings about three separate
but related bugs:

1) failing before allocation should just return an error:

drivers/cpufreq/amd-pstate.c:951:6: error: variable 'ret' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (!dev)
            ^~~~
drivers/cpufreq/amd-pstate.c:1018:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        return ret;
               ^~~

2) wrong variable to store return code:

drivers/cpufreq/amd-pstate.c:963:6: error: variable 'ret' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (rc)
            ^~
drivers/cpufreq/amd-pstate.c:1019:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        return ret;
               ^~~
drivers/cpufreq/amd-pstate.c:963:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always false
        if (rc)
        ^~~~~~~

3) calling amd_pstate_set_epp() in cleanup path after determining
that it should not be called:

drivers/cpufreq/amd-pstate.c:1055:6: error: variable 'epp' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (cpudata->epp_policy == cpudata->policy)
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/cpufreq/amd-pstate.c:1080:30: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        amd_pstate_set_epp(cpudata, epp);
                                    ^~~

All three are trivial to fix, but most likely there are additional bugs
in this function when the error handling was not really tested.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
