Subject: unitialized variable in 2.4.7 (sym53c8xx, dmi_scan)
Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2001 13:43:41 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <177030000.996093821@changeling.engr.sgi.com> (raw)


Compiling with -Werror to catch my development mistakes gives.

sym53c8xx.c:6994: warning: `istat' might be used uninitialized in this
function

dmi_scan.c:161: warning: `disable_ide_dma' defined but not used

The following fixes these issues.
