iwlwifi: mvm: avoid harmless -Wmaybe-uninialized warning
commit 5a7d87da upstream. gcc is apparently unablel to track the state of the local 'resp_v2' variable across the kzalloc() function, and warns about the response variable being used without an initialization: drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/nvm.c: In function ‘iwl_mvm_update_mcc’: drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/nvm.c:727:36: warning: ‘mcc_resp_v1’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] resp_cp->n_channels = mcc_resp_v1->n_channels; drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/nvm.c:721:3: warning: ‘mcc_resp’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] memcpy(resp_cp, mcc_resp, resp_len); The warning showed up in x86 allmodconfig after my patch to unhide -Wmaybe-uninitialized warnings by default was merged, though it always existed in randconfig builds. I did not catch the warning earlier because I was testing on ARM, which never produced the warning. This rearranges the code in a way that improves readability for both humans and the compiler, and that avoids the warning.
