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.

asus_wmi_evaluate_method() is an empty dummy function when CONFIG_ASUS_WMI
is disabled, or not reachable from a built-in device driver. This leads to
a theoretical evaluation of an uninitialized variable that the compiler
complains about, failing to check that the hardcoded return value makes
this an unreachable code path:
In file included from include/linux/printk.h:336,
from include/linux/kernel.h:14,
from include/linux/list.h:9,
from include/linux/dmi.h:5,
from drivers/hid/hid-asus.c:29:
drivers/hid/hid-asus.c: In function 'asus_input_configured':
include/linux/dynamic_debug.h:135:3: error: 'value' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
__dynamic_dev_dbg(&descriptor, dev, fmt, \
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/hid/hid-asus.c:359:6: note: 'value' was declared here
u32 value;
^~~~~
With an extra IS_ENABLED() check, the warning goes away.
Fixes: 3b692c55 ("HID: asus: only support backlight when it's not driven by WMI")
