The barrier implied by spin_unlock() in rain_irq_work_handler makes it hard for gcc to figure out the state of the variables, leading to a false-positive warning: drivers/media/usb/rainshadow-cec/rainshadow-cec.c: In function 'rain_irq_work_handler': drivers/media/usb/rainshadow-cec/rainshadow-cec.c:171:31: error: 'data' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] Slightly rearranging the code makes it easier for the compiler to see that the code is correct, and gets rid of the warning.
