5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Barnabás Pőcze <pobrn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 43aacf838ef7384d985ef5385ecb0124f8c70007 ] Some pointers are initialized when they are defined, but they are almost immediately reassigned in the following lines. Remove these superfluous assignments.
