It already got silenced by initializing at declaration in one of the
downstream trees, so I'd rather we do

@@ -3756,7 +3819,7 @@ static void rbd_watch_cb(void *arg, u64
notify_id, u64 cookie,
        struct rbd_device *rbd_dev = arg;
        void *p = data;
        void *const end = p + data_len;
-       u8 struct_v;
+       u8 struct_v = 0;
        u32 len;
        u32 notify_op;
        int ret;

to reduce the churn.

The "block" prefix is redundant and "rdb" should be "rbd" in the subject.

Thanks,
