net/core/flow_dissector.c: In function ‘__skb_flow_dissect’:
net/core/flow_dissector.c:132: warning: ‘ip_proto’ may be used uninitialized in 
this function

This may be a false positive, but the state machine in
__skb_flow_dissect() is a bit hard to follow.
As I believe it is controlled by a packet received from the network, the
only safe thing to do is to pre-initialize ip_proto.
