Subject: [Cluster-devel] gfs2_dir_read_data(): fix uninitialized variable usage
Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2006 16:02:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061019140207.GP3502@stusta.de> (raw)

In the "if (extlen)" case, "bh" was used uninitialized.

This patch changes the code to what seems to have been intended.

Spotted by the Coverity checker.

This patch also removes a pointless "bh = NULL" asignment (the variable 
is never accessed again after this point).
