Subject: [PATCH] tracing: initialize variable in create_dyn_event()
Date:   Thu, 24 Jan 2019 18:17:50 -0800
Message-Id: <1548382670-30266-1-git-send-email-frowand.list@gmail.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sony.com>

Fix compile warning in create_dyn_event(): 'ret' may be used uninitialized
in this function [-Wuninitialized].

Fixes: 5448d44c3855 ("tracing: Add unified dynamic event framework")

Signed-off-by: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sony.com>

Compile and boot tested only.  Please verify the initialization value
of zero is correct.

There is also a sparse warning you might want to check into (when
ARCH=arm, so 32 bit):

   include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h:147:56: warning: cast truncates bits from constant value (8000000000000000 becomes 0)
