when compiling with smatch check, the following errors were encountered: drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c:957 vfio_combine_iova_ranges() error: uninitialized symbol 'last'. drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c:978 vfio_combine_iova_ranges() error: potentially dereferencing uninitialized 'comb_end'. drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c:978 vfio_combine_iova_ranges() error: potentially dereferencing uninitialized 'comb_start'. This patch initializes the variables last, comb_end, and comb_start to avoid compiler warnings and add proper argument checks to ensure interval_tree_iter_first() does not return NULL.
