Clang also warns about this:

drivers/staging/exfat/exfat_super.c:885:6: warning: variable 'ret' is used 
uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (p_fs->dev_ejected)
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/staging/exfat/exfat_super.c:892:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        return ret;
               ^~~
drivers/staging/exfat/exfat_super.c:885:2: note: remove the 'if' if its 
condition is always true
        if (p_fs->dev_ejected)
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/staging/exfat/exfat_super.c:776:9: note: initialize the variable 'ret' 
to silence this warning
        int ret;
               ^
                = 0
