The last bugfix apparently introduced another problem, as shown
by this gcc warning:
drivers/md/dm.c: In function '__send_changing_extent_only':
drivers/md/dm.c:1365:28: error: 'ti' is used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized]
This restores the intialization of the 'ti' variable.
Fixes: aecefd4919de ("dm: fix __send_changing_extent_only() to send first bio and chain remainder")
Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
---
I did not test this or give the patch much thought, this just seemed
to be the most likely fix I could come up with in a short time, so
please review carefully, and ignore if the solution is something
else.

Already resolved this thanks to Stephen Rothwell's earlier
(substantially more discrete) mail.
I always enjoy a good public shaming but this cc list is particularly
wide. Why?
Anyway, I resolved this differently:

;-)
Sorry about that, I just used the defaults that
scripts/get_maintainer.pl offered,
which is often easier than coming up with a smaller distribution list. You are
right this was a lot more than necessary in this case.
