[PATCH RFC] nfs: initialize timeout variable in nfs4_proc_setclientid_confirm

[Benny Halevy <bhalevy@panasas.com>]

gcc (4.3.0) rightfully warns about this:
/usr0/export/dev/bhalevy/git/linux-pnfs-bh-nfs41/fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c: In =
function =91nfs4_proc_setclientid_confirm=92:
/usr0/export/dev/bhalevy/git/linux-pnfs-bh-nfs41/fs/nfs/nfs4proc.c:2936=
: warning: =91timeout=92 may be used uninitialized in this function

nfs4_delay that's passed a pointer to 'timeout' is looking at its value
and sets it up to some value in the range: NFS4_POLL_RETRY_MIN..NFS4_PO=
LL_RETRY_MAX
	if (*timeout <=3D 0)
		*timeout =3D NFS4_POLL_RETRY_MIN;
	if (*timeout > NFS4_POLL_RETRY_MAX)
		*timeout =3D NFS4_POLL_RETRY_MAX;

Therefore it will end up set to some sane, though rather indeterministi=
c, value.

Trond, this patch merely initializes timeout to 0 which will
result in it set eventually to NFS4_POLL_RETRY_MIN.
Is this appropriate?
