Not sure I fully understand how that fixes it. Given that ret is
currently not initialized when we hit:

if (ov02a10->streaming == on)
goto unlock_and_return;

either we initialize ret to 0 at the start of the function, or do:

if (ov02a10->streaming == on) {
ret = 0;
goto unlock_and_return;
}

(assuming the intention is to return zero for this specific case).
