[PATCH][next] fsinfo: fix an uninialized variable 'conn'

From: Colin King
Date: Thu May 14 2020 - 14:19:33 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Variable conn is not initialized and can potentially contain
garbage causing a false -EPERM return on the !conn check.
Fix this by initializing it to false.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: f2494de388bd ("fsinfo: Add an attribute that lists all the visible mounts in a namespace")
