The report says it's gcc 13.2, that one I use (and expect others as well
as it's a recent one) and we also have -Wmaybe-uninitialized enabled in
fs/btrfs/ to catch such warnings. Yet this is reported on mips64, is
there something special about that compiler+architecture?

The warning is IMO a false positive, the maybe-uninitialized variable is
passed as pointer but initialized on success and never used on failure.
We can safely silence the warning by initializing the variable to 0 but
this may be pointing to a problem with mips64+gcc namely because other
compiler+host combinations do not warn abou that.
