Subject: [PATCH] staging/comedi: Fix undefined array subscript
Date: Wed, 13 Feb 2013 04:30:54 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1360726254-7895-1-git-send-email-peterhuewe@gmx.de> (raw)

In vmk80xx_do_insn_bits the local variable reg, which is used as an
index to the tx_buf array, can be used uninitialized if
- data[0] == 0
and
- devpriv->model != VMK8061_MODEL
-> we get into the else branch without having reg initialized.

Since the driver usually differentiates between VMK8061_MODEL and
VMK8055_MODEL it's safe to assume that VMK8055_DO_REG was meant as an
initial value.
