Subject: [2.6 patch] usb/input/keyspan_remote.c: don't use an uninitialized variable
Date: Sat, 25 Mar 2006 18:12:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060325171214.GG4053@stusta.de> (raw)

gcc reported the following:

<--  snip  -->

...
  CC      drivers/usb/input/keyspan_remote.o
drivers/usb/input/keyspan_remote.c: In function 'keyspan_irq_recv':
drivers/usb/input/keyspan_remote.c:186: warning: 'message.toggle' may be used uninitialized in this function
...

<--  snip  -->


gcc is right, there is an error case where this actually happens.

What about this patch that returns in this error case?
