From 8bdb290896d2ff22942c9c9f5bf19909329f3664 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2016 12:39:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net: nb8800: avoid uninitialized variable warning The nb8800_poll() function initializes the 'next' variable in the loop looking for new input data. We know this will be called at least once because 'budget' is a guaranteed to be a positive number when we enter the function, but the compiler doesn't know that and warns when the variable is used later: drivers/net/ethernet/aurora/nb8800.c: In function 'nb8800_poll': drivers/net/ethernet/aurora/nb8800.c:350:21: warning: 'next' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] Changing the 'while() {}' loop to 'do {} while()' makes it obvious to the compiler what is going on so it no longer warns.
