[bug report] rxrpc: rxgk: Implement the yfs-rxgk security class (GSSAPI)

[Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@linaro.org>]

Hello David Howells,

Commit 9d1d2b59341f ("rxrpc: rxgk: Implement the yfs-rxgk security
class (GSSAPI)") from Apr 11, 2025 (linux-next), leads to the
following Smatch static checker warning:

	net/rxrpc/rxgk.c:501 rxgk_verify_packet_integrity()
	error: uninitialized symbol 'ac'.

    500         if (ret == -EPROTO) {
--> 501                 rxrpc_abort_eproto(call, skb, ac,

This is a false positive in Smatch, but why is only -EPROTO handled and
not other error codes?  It could be intentional, but it's hard for me to
be sure because I don't know the code well.

    502                                    rxgk_abort_1_verify_mic_eproto);
    503         } else {
    504                 sp->offset = offset;
    505                 sp->len = len;
    506         }
    507 
    508         rxgk_put(gk);
    509         _leave(" = %d", ret);
    510         return ret;
