From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> A recent change removed the assignment of err to the return from the call mlx5_esw_bridge_lower_rep_vport_num_vhca_id_get, so now err is uninitialized. This is problematic in the switch statement where attr-id is SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_PRE_BRIDGE_FLAGS, there is now a possibility of err not being assigned and the function returning a garbage value in err. Fix this by initializing err to zero.
