From: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 40e473071dbad04316ddc3613c3a3d1c75458299 ] When ENOSPC is set the idx is still valid and gets set to the global MLX4_SINK_COUNTER_INDEX. However gcc's static analysis cannot tell that ENOSPC is impossible from mlx4_cmd_imm() and gives this warning: drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/main.c:2552:28: warning: 'idx' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] 2552 | priv->def_counter[port] = idx; Also, when ENOSPC is returned mlx4_allocate_default_counters should not fail.
