From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
In the case where zpool_can_sleep_mapped(pool) returns 0
then tmp is not allocated and tmp is then an uninitialized
pointer. Later if entry is null, tmp is freed, hence free'ing
an uninitialized pointer. Fix this by ensuring tmp is initialized
to NULL.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized pointer read")
