mm/page-writeback.c: initialize m_dirty to avoid compile warning
When building kernel with gcc 5.2, the below warning is raised: mm/page-writeback.c: In function 'balance_dirty_pages.isra.10': mm/page-writeback.c:1545:17: warning: 'm_dirty' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] unsigned long m_dirty, m_thresh, m_bg_thresh; The m_dirty{thresh, bg_thresh} are initialized in the block of "if (mdtc)", so if mdts is null, they won't be initialized before being used. Initialize m_dirty to zero, also initialize m_thresh and m_bg_thresh to keep consistency. They are used later by if condition: !mdtc || m_dirty <= dirty_freerun_ceiling(m_thresh, m_bg_thresh) If mdtc is null, dirty_freerun_ceiling will not be called at all, so the initialization will not change any behavior other than just ceasing the compile warning. (akpm: the patch actually reduces .text size by ~20 bytes on gcc-4.x.y) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: add comment] Signed-off-by: Yang Shi <yang.shi@linaro.org> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
