[PATCH] greybus: audio: fix uninitialized variable errors found by cppcheck

From: Vaibhav Agarwal
Date: Sat Sep 24 2016 - 13:42:04 EST


Currently, if info is null, the dev_err message is dereferencing an
uninitialized module pointer. Instead, it should use codec->dev pointer
in dev_err call and better align with other err msg in this function.

Also, ret variable might be used uninitialized in a specific case.
Avoid using it this way.

Found using static analysis with cppcheck:
Checking drivers/staging/greybus/audio_topology.c...
[drivers/staging/greybus/audio_topology.c:175]: (error) Uninitialized
variable: module
[drivers/staging/greybus/audio_topology.c:495]: (error) Uninitialized
variable: ret
