Group,

To my reading of the function, I think gcc has a point:

drivers/serial/8250.c: In function 'serial8250_shutdown':
drivers/serial/8250.c:1685: warning: 'i' may be used uninitialized in this function

It does read as if the code might try to initialize
the 'lock' field of a null pointer.

Suggestions?

Mike
