Subject: uninit variable warnings on gcc 11.3?

Hi everyone,

I went on a spree of trying to build things with W=12e this afternoon,
and I noticed that gcc spat out the following warnings.  I can't tell if
these warnings are bogus noise or if they actually could cause problems,
particularly in the extent status tree bits.  That said, IIRC there's
been some mention of weirdness wrt that part of ext4, so I thought I
should mention this in case it's significant to anyone.
