This is an interesting regression with gcc-8, showing a harmless
warning for correct code:
In file included from include/linux/kernel.h:13:0,
...
from drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_debugfs.c:23:
include/linux/printk.h:301:2: error: 'eq' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
printk(KERN_ERR pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__)
^~~~~~
In file included from drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_debugfs.c:58:0:
drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_debugfs.h:451:31: note: 'eq' was declared here
I tried to come up with a reduced test case for gcc here
a few times, but every time ended up with code that is actually
wrong with older gcc versions missing the bug and gcc-8 finding
it. As this is the only false-positive -Wmaybe-uninitialized
warnign I got with gcc-8 randconfig builds, I'd suggest we
work around it.
Making the index variable 'unsigned' is enough to shut up
the warning, as gcc can then see that comparing eqidx to
phba->io_channel_irqs is fine here.
