drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_ethtool.c:1392 be_get_module_eeprom() error: uninitialized symbol 'status'. When `eeprom->len == 0` and `eeprom->offset == PAGE_DATA_LEN`, we end up with neither of the pages being read, so `status` is left uninitialized. While it appears that no caller will actually give `get_module_eeprom` a zero length, fixing this issue is trivial.
