Building qp.o (part of the "Mellanox ConnectX HCA support" driver)
triggers this GCC warning:
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/qp.c: In function ‘mlx4_ib_post_send’:
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/qp.c:1828:30: warning: ‘vlan’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/qp.c:1718:6: note: ‘vlan’ was declared here
Looking at the code it is clear 'vlan' is only set and used if 'is_eth'
is non-zero. But there's no harm in initializing 'vlan' to 0 (which
matches ib_get_cached_gid()'s default return) to silence GCC.

0) I noticed this warning while building v3.6-rc7 on current Fedora 17,
using Fedora's default config.
1) Compile tested only. I tested against v3.6-rc7, with commit
a41262bb5721f2b708ee8b23f67be2f2e16a2fab ("IB/mlx4: SR-IOV IB context
objects and proxy/tunnel SQP") from linux-next cherry-picked, to take
into account a trivial context change in linux-next.
