Subject: vmwgfx: Fix unitialized stack read in vmw_setup_otable_base
Date: Thu, 30 Jan 2014 21:27:25 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140131022725.GB11601@redhat.com> (raw)

One of the error paths in vmw_setup_otable_base causes us to return with
'ret' having never been set to anything causing us to return whatever was
on the stack.

Found with Coverity
