When I tried to compile the kernel (make allyesconfig) I got the following ugly
warning:
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c: In function âCIFSSMBGetCIFSACLâ:
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c:3082: warning: âpdataâ may be used uninitialized in this
function
The pdata pointer is prctically initialized in line 3086 and it is used in line
3122, but the compiler can't be sure that pdata will be used initialized so it
throws that ugly warning. Just initializing *pdata with NULL will get rid off
that warning.
Patch downer. I also attached it because someone told me that there are problems
with Yahoo! Mail, it trims spaces or tabs...
