Subject: ext4: fix uninitialized variable in ext4_register_li_request
From: Andrew Morton <[email protected]>
commit 6c5a6cb998854f3c579ecb2bc1423d302bcb1b76 upstream.
fs/ext4/super.c: In function 'ext4_register_li_request':
fs/ext4/super.c:2936: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function
It looks buggy to me, too.
