Thanks for the patch! This is not enough to fix all the warnings in this
file:

drivers/dma-buf/st-dma-resv.c:288:6: error: variable 'i' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (r) {
            ^
drivers/dma-buf/st-dma-resv.c:336:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        while (i--)
               ^
drivers/dma-buf/st-dma-resv.c:288:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always false
        if (r) {
        ^~~~~~~~
drivers/dma-buf/st-dma-resv.c:280:10: note: initialize the variable 'i' to silence this warning
        int r, i;
                ^
                 = 0
1 error generated.

This hunk resolves it for me. With that:
