This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled coresight: Potential uninitialized variable in probe() to my char-misc git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git in the char-misc-next branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will also be merged in the next major kernel release during the merge window. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 0530ef6b41e80c5cc979e0e50682302161edb6b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2019 16:12:37 -0600 Subject: coresight: Potential uninitialized variable in probe() The "drvdata->atclk" clock is optional, but if it gets set to an error pointer then we're accidentally return an uninitialized variable instead of success.
