mm/shmem.c: In function ‘shmem_file_aio_read’:
mm/shmem.c:1414: warning: ‘error’ may be used uninitialized in this function
If the loop is aborted during the first iteration by one of the two first
break statements, error will be uninitialized.
Introduced by commit 6e58e79db8a16222b31fc8da1ca2ac2dccfc4237
("introduce copy_page_to_iter, kill loop over iovec in
generic_file_aio_read()").
Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The code is too complex to see if this is an obvious false positive.
