Hi Przemek,

The code above this hunk looks like this:

        do {
                cmd_err = mlx5_rsc_dump_next(mdev, cmd, page, &size);
                if (cmd_err < 0) {
                        err = cmd_err;

clang-16 W=1 warns that err, which is used as the return value of the
function, will be uninitialised if the loop never hits this condition.

Smatch also warns about this.
