RE: [PATCH] cw1200: fix bogus maybe-uninitialized warning

On x86, the cw1200 driver produces a rather silly warning about the
possible use of the 'ret' variable without an initialization
presumably after being confused by the architecture specific definition
of WARN_ON:

drivers/net/wireless/st/cw1200/wsm.c: In function wsm_handle_rx:
drivers/net/wireless/st/cw1200/wsm.c:1457:9: error: ret may be used uninitialized in this function [-
Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

As the driver just checks the same variable twice here, we can simplify
it by removing the second condition, which makes it more readable and
avoids the warning.

That doesn't look equivalent to me (when count == 1).
 	cw1200_debug_txed_multi(priv, count);
 	for (i = 0; i < count; ++i) {
Convert this loop into a do ... while so the body executes at least once.
