This patch adds initialization of the entry_header structs to avoid
compiler warnings like the following:

I flubbed this one due to missing an already existing patch that fixes
the warnings.  I'm going to package that one up with the errno check
patch and send a fixes pull request.

Anything wrong with my fix that I posted a while ago?
See https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/5/25/569

I generally don't like patches that add incorrect initializations to
work around warnings like this.

Not entirely, see the comment below.  I missed this one and the other fix
somehow.

Correct me if I am wrong, but this just masks the warnings on toolchain/
platforms that exhibit these warnings.  I'm not entirely fond of doing
blanket init either to make the warnings go away either...

My patch disallows the case where the compiler can see that the variable
is actually used without an initialization, and that code wouldn't
work properly.

The problem is that in this loop:

        for (i = 0; i < MAX_SLV_ID; i++) {
                rsc_hdr = &cmd_db_header->header[i];
                if (!rsc_hdr->slv_id)
                        break;

                ent = rsc_to_entry_header(rsc_hdr);
                for (j = 0; j < le16_to_cpu(rsc_hdr->cnt); j++, ent++) {
                        if (memcmp(ent->id, query, sizeof(ent->id)) == 0)
                                break;
                }

                if (j < le16_to_cpu(rsc_hdr->cnt)) {
                        memcpy(eh, ent, sizeof(*ent));
                        memcpy(rh, rsc_hdr, sizeof(*rh));
                        return 0;
                }
        }

I think gcc sees that cmd_db_header is initialized to NULL and never
written to after of_reserved_mem_lookup() returns NULL during
cmd_db_dev_probe().

This means we are that cmd_db_get_header never intializes the
resulting structure. It also never returns zero, but gcc doesn't
see that here.

A slightly more drastic workaround might be to initialize *eh
at the start of cmd_db_get_header().

The optimization that I can see would lead to a difference here is if
the conditional in cmd_db_read() is just removed as the compiler see it
always being true, but then doesn't propagate this to the error handling
in cmd_db_get_header(); but that wouldn't make much sense...

Otherwise I think cmd_db_header would be equally uninitialized in the
case where CONFIG_OF_RESERVED_MEM is set, but we haven't seen any issues
related to this on arm64.


Unless there's something I'm missing I would prefer that we just take
Anders' proposed fix, it does mask the problem in a more direct way.
