That is in the

if (amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_sink->sink_signal == SIGNAL_TYPE_DISPLAY_PORT
|| amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_sink->sink_signal == SIGNAL_TYPE_EDP) {

branch not the

} else if (edid && amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_sink->sink_signal == SIGNAL_TYPE_HDMI_TYPE_A) {

branch, where i is indeed used uninitialized like clang complains about.

I am not at all familiar with the code so I cannot say if this fix is
the proper one but it is definitely a legitimate issue.
