Subject: [PATCH 1/2] staging: rtl8188eu: fix usage of uninit scalar in rtw_drv_init()
Date: Sat, 17 May 2014 12:38:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1400323138-32243-2-git-send-email-cengelma@gmx.at> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1400323138-32243-1-git-send-email-cengelma@gmx.at>

Function rtw_drv_init() is written in a way that assumes 'status' != _SUCCESS
as long as not explicitly set. Thus initialize 'status' to FAIL, in order to
prevent undefined behaviour if going through the exit paths. Detected by
Coverity - CID 1077832.
