    wl3501_cs: avoid bogus gcc-6 warning · 2683f7dd

    gcc-6 on x86 started warning about wl3501_get_encode when building
    with -O2:
    
    drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c: In function ‘wl3501_get_encode’:
    drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:1769:5: warning: ‘implemented’ may be used uninitialized in this function
    drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:1686:19: warning: ‘threshold’ may be used uninitialized in this function
    drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:1702:20: warning: ‘threshold’ may be used uninitialized in this function

    drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c:1383:24: warning: ‘value’ may be used uninitialized in this function
    
    I could not figure out what exactly confuses gcc here, but splitting the
    wl3501_get_mib_value function into two helps the compiler to figure out
    that the variables are not actually used uninitialized, and makes it
    slightly clearer to a human reader what the function actually does and
    which parts of it are under the spinlock.
