despite this being a build with -O2 in effect, and despite "compat"
being constant "false" when CONFIG_COMPAT (and hence CONFIG_PV32) is not
defined, as it gets set at the top of the function from the result of
is_pv_32bit_domain().

Re-arrange the two "offending" if()s such that when COMPAT=n the
respective variables will be seen as unconditionally initialized. The
original aim was to have the !compat cases first, though.

Everything seems ok now.  The failure is a known arm32 randconfig issue
which still hasn't been fixed, and is unrelated to this.

Well, the question was primarily for current code and the presently used
Clang version (which you say looks okay now), but also for arbitrary
code changes which may trigger the same issue for any other similar
constructs, plus also for future Clang versions, which may become even
pickier. And not to forget .config variations.

Thanks.
