[PATCH] x86/csum: Fix clang -Wuninitialized in csum_partial()

From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Fri May 26 2023 - 11:48:02 EST


Clang warns:

arch/x86/lib/csum-partial_64.c:74:20: error: variable 'result' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized]
return csum_tail(result, temp64, odd);
^~~~~~
arch/x86/lib/csum-partial_64.c:48:22: note: initialize the variable 'result' to silence this warning
unsigned odd, result;
^
= 0
1 error generated.

The only initialization and uses of result in csum_partial() were moved
into csum_tail() but result is still being passed by value to
csum_tail() (clang's -Wuninitialized does not do interprocedural
analysis to realize that result is always assigned in csum_tail()
however). Sink the declaration of result into csum_tail() to clear up
the warning.
