These warnings popped up in v3.14-rc1. (In v3.13 bvprv was a pointer
initialized to NULL.) This patch is not urgent, but it would still be
nice if the warnings were silenced in v3.14, since they are so noisy. Is
there any tree that queues NVMe fixes to be applied during this release
cycle?

Thanks. So perhaps that variable could be renamed to previous (or its
more common alias prev),
