Gcc incorrectly detects that two variables in aha1542_queuecommand might be used without an initialization: scsi/aha1542.c: In function 'aha1542_queuecommand': scsi/aha1542.c:382:16: error: 'cptr' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] scsi/aha1542.c:379:11: error: 'sg_count' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] The only user of these is doing the same check that the assigment has, so it is actually guaranteed to work. Adding an "else" clause with a fake initialization shuts up the warning.
