ublk_drv: initialize ret variable

[PATCH] ublk_drv: initialize ret variable

Posted by Tom Rix 3 years, 9 months ago

clang build fails with
drivers/block/ublk_drv.c:1304:6: error: variable 'ret' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]

When the call to ublk_get_device_from_id() fails, ret is used without being
initized.  So initialize.

Should already be fixed:
