Paulo Alcantara pc@cjr.nz cifs: improve symlink handling for smb2+
This patch here appears to fail allmodconfig + LLVM on RISC-V: ../fs/cifs/smb2inode.c:419:4: error: variable 'idata' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized] idata->symlink_target = kstrdup(cfile->symlink_target, GFP_KERNEL); ^~~~~ ../fs/cifs/smb2inode.c:76:35: note: initialize the variable 'idata' to silence this warning struct cifs_open_info_data *idata; ^ = NULL 1 error generated.
It looks like this was reported as a smatch error on Christmas Day: https://lore.kernel.org/all/202212250020.fyWQFNzF-lkp@intel.com/
Given the day in question, missing that report seems pretty understandable :)
I tried to see if this had been reported already against the patches themselves, rather than Sasha's queue, but given the size of the patchset I may have missed it. Apologies for the noise if I have.
Thanks, Conor.
