This patch here appears to fail allmodconfig + LLVM on RISC-V:

en used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized]
                        idata->symlink_target =3D kstrdup(cfile->symlink_ta=
rget, GFP_KERNEL);
                        ^~~~~

                                         ^
                                          =3D NULL
1 error generated.

It looks like this was reported as a smatch error on Christmas Day:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/202212250020.fyWQFNzF-lkp@intel.com/

Given the day in question, missing that report seems pretty
understandable :)

I tried to see if this had been reported already against the patches
themselves, rather than Sasha's queue, but given the size of the patchset
I may have missed it. Apologies for the noise if I have.

Thanks,
Conor.
