I've seen it warn like this before, when it shouldn't. I guess
-Wmaybe-uninitialized makes it more conservative.

Using:

  aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.8.2-13ubuntu1) 4.8.2 20140110 (prerelease) [ibm/gcc-4_8-branch merged from gcc-4_8-branch, revision 205847]

Here is the full output, for-next/core gives:

/home/geoff/projects/linaro/git/linux-kexec/arch/arm64/kernel/efi.c:281:31: warning: ?free_end? may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
     total_freed += free_region(free_start, free_end);
                               ^
/home/geoff/projects/linaro/git/linux-kexec/arch/arm64/kernel/efi.c:225:28: note: ?free_end? was declared here
  u64 keep_end, free_start, free_end;
                            ^
Your mod gives:

/home/geoff/projects/linaro/git/linux-kexec/arch/arm64/kernel/efi.c:279:31: warning: ?free_end? may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
     total_freed += free_region(free_start, free_end);
                               ^
/home/geoff/projects/linaro/git/linux-kexec/arch/arm64/kernel/efi.c:225:28: note: ?free_end? was declared here
  u64 keep_end, free_start, free_end;
                            ^
So about the same.
