My tests say

Build results:
total: 155 pass: 155 fail: 0
Qemu test results:
total: 509 pass: 509 fail: 0

However, trying to build with clang (as done by ChromeOS) does report

fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c:6256:6: error: variable 'fp' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
if (work->next_smb2_rcv_hdr_off) {
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c:6367:21: note: uninitialized use occurs here
ksmbd_fd_put(work, fp);
^~
fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c:6256:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always false
if (work->next_smb2_rcv_hdr_off) {
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
fs/ksmbd/smb2pdu.c:6248:23: note: initialize the variable 'fp' to silence this warning
struct ksmbd_file *fp;
^
= NULL

I guess I should try to add clang build tests.

Anyway, smb2_write() already initializes fp with NULL, presumably to handle a
similar problem, so maybe doing the same for the read function would be the
easiest solution. Note that the initialization was added upstream with commit
2fd5dcb1c8ef9 ("ksmbd: smbd: fix missing client's memory region invalidation").
