From: Jan Kara Date: Thu, 23 Oct 2014 12:02:47 +0000 (+0200) Subject: nfs: Fix use of uninitialized variable in nfs_getattr() X-Git-Url: http://git.mmlx.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=29d312e94b2ede1cd3270ed1237a2817032f287d;p=linux-edison.git nfs: Fix use of uninitialized variable in nfs_getattr() commit 16caf5b6101d03335b386e77e9e14136f989be87 upstream. Variable 'err' needn't be initialized when nfs_getattr() uses it to check whether it should call generic_fillattr() or not. That can result in spurious error returns. Initialize 'err' properly.
