Well, I already pulled and pushed out my merge, but only noticed
afterwards that clang complains about this, and I think it's a real
bug:

drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dcn10/dcn10_mpc.c:475:6: warning:
variable 'val' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is
false [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]

and it sure is true: the code literally does

uint32_t val;

if (opp_id < MAX_OPP && REG(MUX[opp_id]))
REG_GET(MUX[opp_id], MPC_OUT_MUX, &val);

return val;

so clearly 'val' isn't initialized if that if-statement isn't true.

I assume 'opp_id' is always presumed to be valid, but that code really
is disgusting.

Just make it return 0 (or whatever) for invalid, possibly together
with a WARN_ON_ONCE(). Ok?
