Hi guys, I noticed the following warning in a linux-next build:
fs/ext4/inode.c: In function 'ext4_da_writepages':
fs/ext4/inode.c:2212:6: warning: 'err' may be used uninitialized in this
function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
In tracking this down, I followed the call chains and discovered that
io_submit_init_bio() only ever returned 0. Switching that to return
void and following back up the chain lead to the following patch. This
makes it far more obvious that by the end of the loop in
mpage_map_and_submit_extent(), err must be zero, which allows the final
removal of err2 and the check that caused the above warning.
This does remove the above warning and simplifies the code a bit, but may
be removing error infrastructure that may be used in the future.
