[PATCH 5/4] futex: silence uninitialized warnings

From: Davidlohr Bueso
Date: Sun Jan 05 2014 - 20:38:58 EST


From: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr@xxxxxx>

Callers of cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() can trigger the following:

kernel/futex.c: In function âfutex_lock_pi_atomicâ:
kernel/futex.c:725: warning: âcurvalâ may be used uninitialized in this function

This was initially addressed by commit 7cfdaf38, but others still remain. Silence
these messages once and for all as the variables really aren't uninitialized.
