Initialize rc to zero so that the atomic_set and dev_err statement don't
trigger for the cases that just break.

I don't think the above is the best solution, as it hides the warning instead of really fixing it.

Your problem is that some legs of the switch are missing setting the value of rc, it would therefore be better to fix the legs instead of setting a default value which may not be correct for every case, allthough it may be at the time being.
