Subject: [PATCH] nfs: Fix use of uninitialized variable in nfs_getattr()
Date: Thu, 23 Oct 2014 14:02:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1414065767-20005-1-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz> (raw)

Variable 'err' needn't be initialized when nfs_getattr() uses it to
check whether it should call generic_fillattr() or not. That can result
in spurious error returns. Initialize 'err' properly.
