In the cifs_reopen_file function, if the following statement is asserted: (tcon->unix_ext && cap_unix(tcon->ses) && (CIFS_UNIX_POSIX_PATH_OPS_CAP & (tcon->fsUnixInfo.Capability))) and we succeed to open with cifs_posix_open, the function jumps to the label reopen_success and checks for oparms.reconnect which is not initialized. To avoid this the oparms structure initialization is anticipated before the if statement.
