Subject: riscv: hwprobe: avoid uninitialized variable use in hwprobe_arch_id()
X-Git-Tag: v6.18-rc3~12^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b7776a802f2f80139f96530a489dd00fd7089eda;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

riscv: hwprobe: avoid uninitialized variable use in hwprobe_arch_id()

Resolve this smatch warning:

  arch/riscv/kernel/sys_hwprobe.c:50 hwprobe_arch_id() error: uninitialized symbol 'cpu_id'.

This could happen if hwprobe_arch_id() was called with a key ID of
something other than MVENDORID, MIMPID, and MARCHID.  This does not
happen in the current codebase.  The only caller of hwprobe_arch_id()
is a function that only passes one of those three key IDs.

For the sake of reducing static analyzer warning noise, and in the
unlikely event that hwprobe_arch_id() is someday called with some
other key ID, validate hwprobe_arch_id()'s input to ensure that
'cpu_id' is always initialized before use.
