Hi Neil,

c98bc57ee65b6 "[SCSI] cxgb3i: convert cdev->l2opt to use rcu to
prevent NULL dereference (v2)" from linux-next introduces a usinging
uninitialized variable bug.

 struct l2t_entry *t3_l2t_get(struct t3cdev *cdev, struct neighbour *neigh,
                             struct net_device *dev)
 {
-       struct l2t_entry *e;
-       struct l2t_data *d = L2DATA(cdev);
+       struct l2t_entry *e = NULL;
+       struct l2t_data *d;
        u32 addr = *(u32 *) neigh->primary_key;
        int ifidx = neigh->dev->ifindex;
        int hash = arp_hash(addr, ifidx, d);
                                         ^
Uninitialized variable.

        struct port_info *p = netdev_priv(dev);
        int smt_idx = p->port_id;
 
+       rcu_read_lock();
+       d = L2DATA(cdev);
+       if (!d)
+               goto done_rcu;
+

regards,
dan carpenter
