Subject: [PATCH 1/2] asus-laptop: remove redundant initializers

Initializing rv to AE_OK is pointless because later function results are
assigned to them and only then the variable is used

out is indeed unused, however the rv > 0 condition is relevant as <=0 will pass
value uninitialized to write_acpi_int.

That's indeed a problem. Somehow I missed that :( Should I make a v2 to include
another patch that checks for rv < 0 or send it as an independent one?

Please just rewrite this one to do the right thing as a v2.

Sorry, my response was not clear. Please resend both patches as a v2, with the
first unchanged, and this one updated to do the right thing. This just makes
managing the patches as series simpler.

Thank you,
