H A Dmax8925-i2c.cdiff 0953075112d7626474b0bb88690f5f1ab93ec803 Thu May 04 15:10:54 CDT 2017 Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> mfd: max8925-i2c: Drop unnecessary static

Drop static on a local variable, when the variable is initialized before
any use, on every possible execution path through the function. The static
has no benefit, and dropping it reduces the code size.

The semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@bad exists@
position p;
identifier x;
type T;
@@

static T x@p;
...
x = <+...x...+>

@@
identifier x;
expression e;
type T;
position p != bad.p;
@@

-static
T x@p;
... when != x
when strict
?x = e;
// </smpl>

The change in code size is indicates by the following output from the size
command.

before:
text data bss dec hex filename
2579 240 16 2835 b13 drivers/mfd/max8925-i2c.o

after:
text data bss dec hex filename
