The patch spi: qup: hide warning for uninitialized variable has been applied to the spi tree at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 6f38f125ffc4d87768129644fb485eca7382f0b1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2017 14:13:26 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] spi: qup: hide warning for uninitialized variable The added conditionals in this function apparently confused gcc to the point that it no longer sees the code is safe and instead shows a false-positive warning: drivers/spi/spi-qup.c: In function 'spi_qup_transfer_one': drivers/spi/spi-qup.c:507:28: error: 'tx_nents' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] drivers/spi/spi-qup.c:464:17: note: 'tx_nents' was declared here drivers/spi/spi-qup.c:505:28: error: 'rx_nents' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] drivers/spi/spi-qup.c:464:7: note: 'rx_nents' was declared here This moves the initialization to a place that makes it obvious to the compiler.
