More warnings:
fs/partitions/check.c: In function `rescan_partitions':
fs/partitions/check.c:511: warning: 'state' might be used uninitialized in this function

=> follow same pattern

This is:
        if (get_user(flen, &u_fprog32->len) ||
            get_user(fptr32, &u_fprog32->filter))
                return -EFAULT;


which is a common pattern. I have at least one in sparc64 code too.
I did not come up with a nice solution on this one.

I have two warnings in sparc code I will deal with.
One of them is the get_user() || get_user() pattern
so I dunno how to fix it atm.

The above is from a:
make ARCH=sparc64 allmodconfig
make ARCH=sparc64 vmlinux

I did not try to build modules...
