[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH v2] ocfs2: quota_local: fix possible uninitialized-variable access in ocfs2_local_read_info()

[Tuo Li]

A memory block is allocated through kmalloc(), and its return value is
assigned to the pointer oinfo. If the return value of
ocfs2_global_read_info() at line 709 is less than zero,
oinfo->dqi_gqinode may be not initialized. However, it is accessed at
line 775:
  iput(oinfo->dqi_gqinode);

To fix this possible uninitialized-variable access, replace kmalloc()
with kzalloc() when allocating memory for oinfo.

v2:
* Replace kzalloc() with NULL assignment to oinfo->dqi_gqinode.
  Thank Joseph Qi for helpful advice.

We need take care oinfo->dqi_gqlock as well. How about the following way?
