[PATCH v3] ocfs2: quota_local: fix possible uninitialized-variable access in ocfs2_local_read_info()

From: Tuo Li
Date: Tue Aug 03 2021 - 23:19:19 EST


A memory block is allocated through kmalloc(), and its return value is
assigned to the pointer oinfo. However, oinfo->dqi_gqinode is not
initialized but it is accessed in:
iput(oinfo->dqi_gqinode);

To fix this possible uninitialized-variable access, assign NULL to
oinfo->dqi_gqinode, and add ocfs2_qinfo_lock_res_init()
behind the assignment in ocfs2_local_read_info(). Remove
ocfs2_qinfo_lock_res_init() in ocfs2_global_read_info().

v3:
* Update description.
* Assign NULL to oinfo->dqi_gqinode, and add ocfs2_qinfo_lock_res_init()
behind the assignment in ocfs2_local_read_info(). Remove
ocfs2_qinfo_lock_res_init() in ocfs2_global_read_info()
Thank Joseph Qi for helpful advice.
v2:
* Replace kzalloc() with NULL assignment to oinfo->dqi_gqinode.
