Subject: [PATCH] virtiofs: Drop unnecessary initialization in send_forget_request and virtio_fs_get_tree

The variable is initialized but it is only used after its assignment.

That causes an uninitialized access in the source tree I'm looking at
(c5e4d5e99162ba8025d58a3af7ad103f155d2df7):

static int send_forget_request(struct virtio_fs_vq *fsvq,
struct virtio_fs_forget *forget,
bool in_flight)
{
struct scatterlist sg;
struct virtqueue *vq;
int ret = 0;
^^^^^^^
bool notify;
struct virtio_fs_forget_req *req = &forget->req;

spin_lock(&fsvq->lock);
if (!fsvq->connected) {
if (in_flight)
dec_in_flight_req(fsvq);
kfree(forget);
goto out;
...
out:
spin_unlock(&fsvq->lock);
return ret;
^^^
}

What is the purpose of this patch? Is there a compiler warning (if so,
which compiler and version)? Do you have a static analysis tool that
reported this (if yes, then maybe it's broken)?
