Firstly I'm glad you were more awake than me Christophe as I missed that
entirely. :(

So two ways we could deal with the warning (which is valid given there
is no way clang could sensibly tell that all those if (ret) actually
mean if (ret < 0).

I don't like changing them to if (ret < 0) inside _adc_read_channel()
because generally it ends up cleaner to just do if (ret) based handling
for regmap calls. So we could just assign a default to val that is never
used or we could change that function to return 0 on success and adjust
the other call site to return IIO_VAL_INT if there isn't an error.

The second one would make the other caller rather messier so I'd suggest
just giving val a default and adding a comment saying it's for warning
suppression purposes...
