Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.

As recommended[2] by[3] Linus[4], remove the macro.

Most of the 300 uses don't cause any warnings on gcc 9.3.0, so they're in
a single treewide commit in this series. A few others needed to actually
get cleaned up, and I broke those out into individual patches.

Hi! This was actually on Linus's latest tree (which is basically -next),
mostly because I figured this might be a bit of an RFC but if it was
clean enough, it might actually make the merge window (I can dream).

Sure! https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux.git in
the kspp/uninit/v5.7/macro branch. There were three small differences.
I'm doing the "all my cross compilers allmodconfig" build run now, but
figured I'd push it for you now so you didn't have to wait.

Hi Kees!

Thanks :-).

I applied all of these on top of cb8e59cc8720 and ran a variety of
builds with clang for arm32, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, and x86_64 [1]
and only saw one warning pop up (which was about a variable being
unused, commented on patch 9 about it). No warnings about uninitialized
variables came up; clang's -Wuninitialized was not impacted by
78a5255ffb6a ("Stop the ad-hoc games with -Wno-maybe-initialized") so it
should have caught anything egregious.

Hi Kees,

I tried with updated version (checkpatch) of your tree and see no
(new) warnings in my build-log.

Feel free to add my...

Awesome! Thank you both! :)
