Subject: [bug report] ext4: fast commit recovery path

Hello Harshad Shirwadkar,

The patch 8016e29f4362: "ext4: fast commit recovery path" from Oct
15, 2020, leads to the following Smatch static checker warnings:

	fs/ext4/inode.c:4533 __ext4_get_inode_loc_noinmem()
	error: uninitialized symbol 'err_blk'.

	fs/ext4/inode.c:4548 ext4_get_inode_loc()
	error: uninitialized symbol 'err_blk'.

fs/ext4/inode.c
    4523 static int __ext4_get_inode_loc_noinmem(struct inode *inode,
    4524                                         struct ext4_iloc *iloc)
    4525 {
    4526         ext4_fsblk_t err_blk;
    4527         int ret;
    4528 
    4529         ret = __ext4_get_inode_loc(inode->i_sb, inode->i_ino, NULL, iloc,
    4530                                         &err_blk);
    4531 
    4532         if (ret == -EIO)
--> 4533                 ext4_error_inode_block(inode, err_blk, EIO,

Only the last return -EIO sets err_blk.  The first return -EIO leaves it
uninitialized.

    4534                                         "unable to read itable block");
    4535 
    4536         return ret;
    4537 }

regards,
dan carpenter
