Clang points out that the error handling in ov02a10_s_stream() is
broken, and just returns a random error code:

drivers/media/i2c/ov02a10.c:537:6: warning: variable 'ret' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (ov02a10->streaming == on)
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/media/i2c/ov02a10.c:568:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        return ret;
               ^~~
drivers/media/i2c/ov02a10.c:537:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always false
        if (ov02a10->streaming == on)
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/media/i2c/ov02a10.c:533:9: note: initialize the variable 'ret' to silence this warning
        int ret;

I assume that -EBUSY is the intended error code, so use that.

Hi Arnd,

Thanks for the patch.

Only if sensor fails to stream on, ret can return a negative error code.
Thus ret above needs to be initialized to '0'.
Also you could fix the clang error like this.

static int ov02a10_s_stream(struct v4l2_subdev *sd, int on)
{
	struct ov02a10 *ov02a10 = to_ov02a10(sd);
	...
	int ret = 0;

	...
	if (ov02a10->streaming == on)
		goto unlock_and_return;

	...
}

Ok, I sent a version 2.

Sorry, I should have removed the last line of the output from
clang that suggested doing that. Initializing a local variable
in the declaration is generally a bad idea precisely because it
prevents the compiler from warning about a case like this where
the author forgot to set the correct error value.

We should really fix clang to not propagate that nonsense.
