Here is the extract from the original patch at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/12/16/74 that I sent to LKML and I dont see
p being uninitialized.
+
+static void search_within_subtree(struct rb_node *n, struct inode *inode,
+ struct list_head *tmp_list)
+{
+ struct rb_node *p;
+
+ p = n->rb_left;
+ if (p)
+ __search_within_subtree(p, inode, tmp_list);
+
+ p = n->rb_right;
+ if (p)
+ __search_within_subtree(p, inode, tmp_list);
+}
+
However I have already agreed to remove this recursion and replace it
with a rb_next() logic.
