You can already see that it looks fishy because of the indentation. The second commit refactors a bunch of the interface, and incorrectly drops the params initialization. I believe what occurred is that internally the two patches were re-ordered, and the merge conflicts as a result were performed incorrectly. Fix the use of an uninitialized variable by correctly initializing the params variable via i40e_client_get_params().
