If you really want to get rid of these warnings, you can use this 
default for the variables :

pj = 0x0;
jd=0xff;

d = 0xff;

It doesn't really make sense why we would choose to initialise these 
variables, but if you want to silence the preprocessor, then perhaps 
those values. Put a message that defaults are not known nor specified in 
the data sheet and these values are chosen to be unlikely matches of 
real world values - which ensures regmap updates later from an initial 
unknown chip state after refresh. All a bit messy really.

Don't return here, the rest of the chip is still functional and probably 
in use. Print the dev_info and continue.
