In the unlikely event that there are no callback calls made then ret
will be returned as an uninitialized value. Clean up static analysis
warnings by ensuring ret is initialized.

I'm still bad at Git; will the commit hash here be right, since the
patch that this fixes isn't upstream yet?
(hope the gmail web client doesn't maul this too badly...)

The hash is stable unless the branch rebases. When maintainers rebase a
branch, they're expected to update the Fixes tags as well. Most people
probably have a script to do it. I think Stephen Rothwell has a script
which checks whether Fixes tags are correct?

Applied with some edits in the subject and changelog.
Basically, if you make changes like this, please specify which piece
of code you change in the subject/changelog.
Thanks!
