[PATCH v1 1/1] mtd: slram: insert break after errors in parsing the map

[Mirsad Todorovac]

The GCC 12.3.0 compiler on linux-next next-20240709 tree found the execution
path in which, due to lazy evaluation, devlength isn't initialised with the
parsed string:

   289          while (map) {
   290                  devname = devstart = devlength = NULL;
   291
   292                  if (!(devname = strsep(&map, ","))) {
   293                          E("slram: No devicename specified.\n");
   294                          break;
   295                  }
   296                  T("slram: devname = %s\n", devname);
   297                  if ((!map) || (!(devstart = strsep(&map, ",")))) {
   298                          E("slram: No devicestart specified.\n");
   299                  }
   300                  T("slram: devstart = %s\n", devstart);
 → 301                  if ((!map) || (!(devlength = strsep(&map, ",")))) {
   302                          E("slram: No devicelength / -end specified.\n");
   303                  }
 → 304                  T("slram: devlength = %s\n", devlength);
   305                  if (parse_cmdline(devname, devstart, devlength) != 0) {
   306                          return(-EINVAL);
   307                  }

Parsing should be finished after map == NULL, so a break is best inserted after
each E("slram: ... \n") error message.
