Subject: [patch 1/2] netxen: fix error handling in netxen_get_flash_block()
Date: Thu, 5 May 2016 16:18:46 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160505131846.GB3038@mwanda> (raw)

My static checker complained that "v" can be used unintialized if
netxen_rom_fast_read() returns -EIO.  That function never actually
returns -1.
