From: JP Abgrall Date: Sat, 14 Apr 2012 02:22:35 +0000 (-0700) Subject: netfilter: qtaguid: initialize a local var to keep compiler happy. X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c2506e3c58ab22a238123aa9a4362a8ead4dbc45;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git netfilter: qtaguid: initialize a local var to keep compiler happy. There was a case that might have seemed like new_tag_stat was not initialized and actually used. Added comment explaining why it was impossible, and a BUG() in case the logic gets changed.
