Subject: [patch] [media] tm6000: using an uninitialized variable in debug code
Date: Wed, 14 Dec 2011 06:17:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111214061736.GA7499@elgon.mountain> (raw)

dprintk() dereferences "ir".  I'm not sure why gcc doesn't complain
about this.

Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>
