Opinions differ (a bit) but personally I think the benefit of fixing the warnings outweighs the risk that these suppressions will later hide a real bug. Certainly, using uninitialized_var() is better than open-coding "= 0" all over the place. Purists can add a config variable to centrally disable uninitialized_var() if they want to check on the warnings. > #gccbug branch is a set of places where I have verified that the > variable is indeed initialized, even though gcc complains it may not be. > Do it! - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
