The rtllib_rx_extract_addr() is supposed to set up the mac addresses for four possible cases, based on two bits of input data. For some reason, gcc decides that it's possible that none of the these four cases apply and the addresses remain uninitialized: drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtllib_rx.c: In function ‘rtllib_rx_InfraAdhoc’: include/linux/etherdevice.h:316:61: error: ‘*((void *)&dst+4)’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtllib_rx.c:1318:5: note: ‘*((void *)&dst+4)’ was declared here ded from /git/arm-soc/drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtllib_rx.c:40:0: include/linux/etherdevice.h:316:36: error: ‘dst’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtllib_rx.c:1318:5: note: ‘dst’ was declared here This warning is clearly nonsense, but changing the last case into 'default' makes it obvious to the compiler too, which avoids the warning and probably leads to better object code too. As the same warning appears in other files that have the exact same code, I'm fixing it in both rtl8192e and rtl8192u, even though I did not observe it for the latter.
