We have the -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning enabled per fs/btrfs/
directory, there are no other known reports fixing the uninitialized
inode_item so this might be specific to loongarch gcc 12.x. I'll add the
patch to for-next as we still want to get all the warnings fixed, thanks.

Yes, x86 and arm64 did not report this warning issue.
