When checking the code with clang -Wsometimes-uninitialized we get the
following warning:
if (!tipc_link_is_establishing(l)) {
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
net/tipc/node.c:847:46: note: uninitialized use occurs here
tipc_bearer_xmit(n->net, bearer_id, &xmitq, maddr);
net/tipc/node.c:831:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always
true
if (!tipc_link_is_establishing(l)) {
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
net/tipc/node.c:821:31: note: initialize the variable 'maddr' to silence
this warning
struct tipc_media_addr *maddr;
We fix this by initializing 'maddr' to NULL. For the matter of clarity,
we also test if 'xmitq' is non-empty before we use it and 'maddr'
further down in the function. It will never happen that 'xmitq' is non-
empty at the same time as 'maddr' is NULL, so this is a sufficient test.
