From 2e028c4fe12907f226b8221815f16c2486ad3aa7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2017 10:35:57 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] ftrace: Fix uninitialized variable in match_records() My static checker complains that if "func" is NULL then "clear_filter" is uninitialized. This seems like it could be true, although it's possible something subtle is happening that I haven't seen. kernel/trace/ftrace.c:3844 match_records() error: uninitialized symbol 'clear_filter'.
