4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Boris Brezillon <[email protected]> commit de2d8db395c32d121d02871819444b631f73e0b6 upstream. drm_atomic_helper_async_check() declares the plane, old_plane_state and new_plane_state variables to iterate over all planes of the atomic state and make sure only one plane is enabled. Unfortunately gcc is not smart enough to figure out that the check on n_planes is enough to guarantee that plane, new_plane_state and old_plane_state are initialized. Explicitly initialize those variables to NULL to make gcc happy.
