    netfilter: fix warning in net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_ftp.c
    
    this warning:
    
      net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_ftp.c: In function 'help':
      net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_ftp.c:360: warning: 'matchoff' may be used uninitialized in this function
      net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_ftp.c:360: warning: 'matchlen' may be used uninitialized in this function
    
    triggers because GCC does not recognize the (correct) error flow
    between find_pattern(), 'found', 'matchoff' and 'matchlen'.
    
    Annotate it.
