[PATCH 1/1] tty: n_gsm: fix sometimes uninitialized warning in gsm_dlci_modem_output()

From: D. Starke
Date: Mon Apr 25 2022 - 06:48:53 EST


From: Daniel Starke <daniel.starke@xxxxxxxxxxx>

'size' may be used uninitialized in gsm_dlci_modem_output() if called with
an adaption that is neither 1 nor 2. The function is currently only called
by gsm_modem_upd_via_data() and only for adaption 2.
Properly handle every invalid case by returning -EINVAL to silence the
compiler warning and avoid future regressions.

Fixes: c19ffe00fed6 ("tty: n_gsm: fix invalid use of MSC in advanced option")
