Subject: [PATCH 1/1] perf annotate: Initialize 'arch' variable not to trip some -Werror=maybe-uninitialized

In some older distros the build is failing due to
-Werror=maybe-uninitialized, in this case we know that this isn't the
case because 'arch' gets initialized by evsel__get_arch(), so just init
it to NULL to silence those cases.

E.g.:

32 17.12 opensuse:15.5 : FAIL gcc version 7.5.0 (SUSE Linux)
util/annotate.c: In function 'hist_entry__get_data_type':
util/annotate.c:2269:15: error: 'arch' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
struct arch *arch;

This looks fine but I couldn't line up the errors with code in the
tree. I was curious why the "maybe-uninitialized" was failing. Perhaps
evsel__get_arch should set the out argument to NULL when an error
occurs. This fix is also good but may potentially need repeating for
other evsel__get_arch cases, so a fix in evsel__get_arch may be
preferable.

Yeah, your suggestion is better and I just tested, satisfies the
compilers that were emitting this warning.

I stamped a:
