From 3eaaaf6cd6d7fbaf552cc543ccb93d7da81f43ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2015 16:51:17 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Shut up spurious gcc uninitialized-variable warning Because gcc doesn't realize that rcu_num_lvls must be strictly greater than zero, some versions give a spurious warning about levelcnt[0] being uninitialized in rcu_init_one(). This commit updates the condition on the pre-existing panic() in order to educate gcc on this point. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
