[PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.15 040/189] ubifs: Fix uninitialized variable in search_dh_cookie()

[Sasha Levin]

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c877154d307f4a91e0b5b85b75535713dab945ae ]

fs/ubifs/tnc.c: In function âsearch_dh_cookieâ:
fs/ubifs/tnc.c:1893: warning: âerrâ is used uninitialized in this function

Indeed, err is always used uninitialized.

According to an original review comment from Hyunchul, acknowledged by
Richard, err should be initialized to -ENOENT to avoid the first call to
tnc_next().  But we can achieve the same by reordering the code.

Fixes: 781f675e2d7e ("ubifs: Fix unlink code wrt. double hash lookups")
