First of all, it's a bit counterintuitive to have something like
int err;
...
scoped_guard(...)
err = foo(...);
if (err)
return err;
Second, with a particular kernel configuration and compiler version in
one of such cases the objtool is not happy:
ideapad-laptop.o: warning: objtool: .text.fan_mode_show: unexpected end of section
I'm not an expert on all this, but the theory is that compiler and
linker in this case can't understand that 'result' variable will be
always initialized as long as no error has been returned. Assigning
'result' to a dummy value helps with this. Note, that fixing the
scoped_guard() scope (as per above) does not make issue gone.
That said, assign dummy value and make the scope_guard() clear of its scope.
For the sake of consistency do it in the entire file.

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 reStructuredText 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.
