Subject: [PATCH v2 net] nexthop: fix uninitialized variable in
 nla_put_nh_group_stats()
Message-ID: <f08ac289-d57f-4a1a-830f-cf9a0563cb9c@moroto.mountain>
Precedence: bulk

Content-Disposition: inline

The "*hw_stats_used" value needs to be set on the success paths to prevent
an uninitialized variable bug in the caller, nla_put_nh_group_stats().

Fixes: 5072ae00aea4 ("net: nexthop: Expose nexthop group HW stats to user space")
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@linaro.org>

v2: Set the variable in nh_grp_hw_stats_update() instead of
    nla_put_nh_group_stats().
