Subject: mlx4: fix error path in drivers/net/mlx4/en_rx.c
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b58515be978f9377b9546ae98ad6c8bbc2f93ee1;p=linux-beck.git

mlx4: fix error path in drivers/net/mlx4/en_rx.c

this warning:

  drivers/net/mlx4/en_rx.c: In function ‘mlx4_en_activate_rx_rings’:
  drivers/net/mlx4/en_rx.c:412: warning: ‘err’ may be used uninitialized in this function

Triggers because 'err' is uninitialized in the following input
conditions: priv->rx_ring_num is zero and mlx4_en_fill_rx_buffers()
fails.

But even if ->rx_ring_num is nonzero, 'err' will be zero if
mlx4_en_fill_rx_buffers() fails and mlx4_en_activate_rx_rings() returns
success - incorrectly.

So it's best to keep the error code uptodate on mlx4_en_fill_rx_buffers()
calls as well.
