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

From: Tuo Li
Date: Sat Jul 31 2021 - 03:57:26 EST


A memory block is allocated through kmalloc(), and its return value is
assigned to the pointer oinfo. If the return value of
ocfs2_global_read_info() at line 709 is less than zero,
oinfo->dqi_gqinode may be not initialized. However, it is accessed at
line 775:
iput(oinfo->dqi_gqinode);

To fix this possible uninitialized-variable access, replace kmalloc()
with kzalloc() when allocating memory for oinfo.
