[for-next][PATCH 01/40] tracing: Initialize upper and lower vars in pid_list_refill_irq()

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Fri Oct 22 2021 - 16:49:00 EST


From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The upper and lower variables are set as link lists to add into the sparse
array. If they are NULL, after the needed allocations are done, then there
is nothing to add. But they need to be initialized to NULL for this to
work.
