In my build environment, there is no such compiler warning. :(

Adding this patch is just want to avoid kbuild test robot's warning.
But, in fact, it is not necessary to initialize regulator_idx.


for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(max8925_regulator_info); i++) {
ri = &max8925_regulator_info[i];
if (ri->vol_reg == res->start) {

****** if regulator_idx can not get a match "i" here, it will return
-EINVAL in below code

regulator_idx = i;
break;
}
}

if (i == ARRAY_SIZE(max8925_regulator_info)) {
dev_err(&pdev->dev, "Failed to find regulator %llu\n",
(unsigned long long)res->start);
return -EINVAL;
}

How to solve such compiler warning?
