[PATCH] FS-Cache: Add missing initialization of ret in cachefiles_write_page()

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Wed Nov 11 2015 - 18:02:16 EST


fs/cachefiles/rdwr.c: In function âcachefiles_write_pageâ:
fs/cachefiles/rdwr.c:882: warning: âretâ may be used uninitialized in
this function

If the jump to label "error" is taken, "ret" will indeed be
uninitialized, and random stack data may be printed by the debug code.

Fixes: 102f4d900c9c8f5e ("FS-Cache: Handle a write to the page immediately beyond the EOF marker")
