From: Jason Yan <yanaijie@xxxxxxxxxx> This is an effort to eliminate the uninitialized_var() macro[1]. The use of this macro is the wrong solution because it forces off ANY analysis by the compiler for a given variable. It even masks "unused variable" warnings. Quoted from Linus[2]: "It's a horrible thing to use, in that it adds extra cruft to the source code, and then shuts up a compiler warning (even the _reliable_ warnings from gcc)." Fix it by remove this variable since it is not needed at all.
