Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 16.07.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable
yet. It will be pushed if I get no objections before this Friday.
So please shutout if anyone has objections.

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] mem: fix build with -O1

[ upstream commit 11fd19f7646743c973b9de52d75120045e62f116 ]
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

When compiled with EXTRA_CFLAGS="-O1", the compiler is not
able to detect that size is always initialized when used, and
issues a wrong warning:

  eal_memory.c: In function ‘rte_eal_hugepage_attach’:
  eal_memory.c:1684:3: error: ‘size’ may be used uninitialized in this
                       function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
     munmap(hp, size);
     ^

Workaround this issue by initializing size to 0.
Seen on gcc (Debian 5.4.1-1) 5.4.1 20160803.
