With gcc 4.1.2:

    drivers/iio/proximity/isl29501.c: In function ‘isl29501_register_write’:
    drivers/iio/proximity/isl29501.c:235: warning: ‘msb’ may be used uninitialized in this function

While this is a false positive, it can easily be avoided by removing the
"msb" intermediate variable.
Remove the "lsb" intermediate variable for consistency.

Looks sensible to me, but I'd obviously like to leave a little time for 
Mathieu to comment as it's his driver.

Long enough. I guess Mathieu is busy so I'll apply this (mostly before
it goes so far back in my email that I loose it)

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing for
the autobuilders to play with it.  I thought about marking for stable
to reduce noise but decided that compiler is old enough (and I've not
seen it with GCC 8 IIRC) that I wouldn't bother.

Basically I'm taking this on the merits of it being better code rather 
than the warning fix :)

Thanks,

Jonathan

Thanks!

JFTR: I only send patches for these warnings if they (a) fix a real bug, or (b)
improve the code.
