    CIFS: SMBD: work around gcc -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning · e36c048a
    Arnd Bergmann authored
    GCC versions from 4.9 to 6.3 produce a false-positive warning when
    dealing with a conditional spin_lock_irqsave():
    
    fs/cifs/smbdirect.c: In function 'smbd_recv_buf':
    include/linux/spinlock.h:260:3: warning: 'flags' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
    
    This function calls some sleeping interfaces, so it is clear that it
    does not get called with interrupts disabled and there is no need
    to save the irq state before taking the spinlock. This lets us
    remove the variable, which makes the function slightly more efficient
    and avoids the warning.
    
    A further cleanup could do the same change for other functions in this
    file, but I did not want to take this too far for now.
