Subject: [PATCH] staging/lustre/llite: Fix a compile warning.
Date: Sun, 27 Apr 2014 14:42:29 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1398624149-8209-1-git-send-email-green@linuxhacker.ru> (raw)

Quiet the warning below in Lustre code.
Actually the warning is invalid since we either always assign
the symname in ll_readlink_internal or return an error there and
then the following rc check would assign symlink variable explicitly.
