[PATCH v2] vfio: Fix uninitialized symbol and potential dereferencing errors in vfio_combine_iova_ranges

From: Cong Liu
Date: Thu Sep 14 2023 - 05:10:00 EST


when compiling with smatch check, the following errors were encountered:

drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c:957 vfio_combine_iova_ranges() error: uninitialized symbol 'last'.
drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c:978 vfio_combine_iova_ranges() error: potentially dereferencing uninitialized 'comb_end'.
drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c:978 vfio_combine_iova_ranges() error: potentially dereferencing uninitialized 'comb_start'.

this patch fix these error.

While this may seem somewhat verbose, I am unsure how to refactor this function.
