I think that's the right thing to do.

That would make sense, let me know if you have any other suspicious compiler
warnings. :)

Ack.
I admit that I don't understand the code, and don't claim to understand it.

This may be just a weird compiler issue.
I thought I'd send it just as a heads-up.
I saw this on a Raspberry Pi branch [after we enabled warnings as errors]:
https://travis-ci.org/analogdevicesinc/linux/jobs/601844926#L1208

Looking in the latest f2fs/dev[-test] tree, it looks like the code is
similar as in 4.19.
https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/linux/blob/rpi-4.19.y/fs/f2fs/node.c#L235

Could be that the RPi branch has some more compiler-stuff enabled.

In any case, feel free to disregard this.
We will see how we fix this on our end for that branch specifically.

Thanks
Alex

That's not correct, @head will only be assigned and used if new_ne equals NULL.
