Static analysis reports this representative problem
tda1997x.c:1939: warning: 7th function call argument is an uninitialized
value
The 7th argument is buffer[0], which is set in the earlier call to
io_readn(). When io_readn() call to io_read() fails with the first
read, buffer[0] is not set and 0 is returned and stored in len.
The later call to hdmi_infoframe_unpack()'s size parameter is the
static size of buffer, always 40, so a short read is not caught
in hdmi_infoframe_unpacks()'s checking. The variable len should be
used instead.
Zero initialize buffer to 0 so it is in a known start state.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
