From: Zijun Hu <redacted> parse_interrupt_map() will use uninitialized variable @imaplen if fails to get property 'interrupt-map'. Fix by using the variable after successfully getting the property.

Correct. I think error is harmless, because whatever stack/random value of imaplen we use in 'imaplen / =sizeof', we immediately return. Anyway, for code correctness and silencing whatever warnings there are (if there are you should actually paste them in commit msg): Reviewed-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzk@kernel.org> Best regards, Krzysztof
