Okay, I could do something like this?

diff --git a/sound/soc/codecs/src4xxx.c b/sound/soc/codecs/src4xxx.c
index a8f143057b41..db4e280dd055 100644

These warnings need to be eliminated because Linus requires a clean
build as much as possible [1] [2], which has been codified by
CONFIG_WERROR, which is enabled by default with allmodconfig. As a
result, clang allmodconfig builds are broken [3], which you might have
already seen. If there is another way this could be written without
potentially uninitialized variables, I am open to it.

Indeed :/

I'll send a v2 tomorrow morning (for me at least) if there are no other
comments.
