When building with -Wsometimes-uninitialized, Clang warns:

drivers/acpi/sysfs.c:667:13: warning: variable 'result' is used uninitialized 
whenever 'if' condition is false [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]

Clang can't determine that all cases are covered by the two separate if
statements. We could combine then to look like this:

    int result;

    if (...) {
        ...
    } else if {
        ...
    } else {
        result -EINVAL;
    }

    return result;

However, at that point, we can further simplify this function by only
using result when absolutely needed and just direct returning the value
of the function.
