This code has been written in 2008 and is fine, but in order to keep
robots happy, I think it's time to change a little bit this code just
to clarify the different possible values of eccsize_mult. Indeed, this
variable may only take the value 1 or 2 because step_size, in the case
of the software Hamming ECC engine may only be 256 or 512. Depending
on the value of eccsize_mult, an extra rp17 variable is set, or not
and triggers the following warning:
smatch warnings:
ecc_sw_hamming_calculate() error: uninitialized symbol 'rp17'.
As highlighted by Dan Carpenter, if the only possible values for
eccsize_mult are 1 and 2, then the code is fine, but "it's hard to
tell just from looking".
So instead of shifting step_size, let's use a ternary condition to
assign to eccsize_mult the only two possible values and clarify the
driver's logic.
Now that the situation is clarified for humans, ensure rp17 is
initialized to 0 to keep compilers and robots silent as well.

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.
