Clang also warns about this:
drivers/staging/exfat/exfat_super.c:885:6: warning: variable 'ret' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
if (p_fs->dev_ejected)
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/staging/exfat/exfat_super.c:892:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here
return ret;
^~~
drivers/staging/exfat/exfat_super.c:885:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always true
if (p_fs->dev_ejected)
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/staging/exfat/exfat_super.c:776:9: note: initialize the variable 'ret' to silence this warning
int ret;
