Subject: [PATCH] mm: initialize return of vm_insert_pages
Date: Fri,  3 Jul 2020 07:52:02 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200703145202.10629-1-trix@redhat.com> (raw)

From: Tom Rix <trix@redhat.com>

clang static analysis reports a garbage return

In file included from mm/memory.c:84:
mm/memory.c:1612:2: warning: Undefined or garbage value returned to caller [core.uninitialized.UndefReturn]
        return err;
        ^~~~~~~~~~

The setting of err depends on a loop executing.
So initialize err.
