Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 16.11.4

It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/01/17. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Thanks.

Kind regards,

Subject: [PATCH] uio: fix compilation with -Og
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

[ upstream commit 84585f330fc3d5296d9b660bb639ebc8c7bf2aff ]

The compilation with gcc-6.3.0 and EXTRA_CFLAGS=-Og gives the following
error:

  CC eal_pci_uio.o
  eal_pci_uio.c: In function ‘pci_get_uio_de ’:
  eal_pci_uio.c:221:9: error: ‘uio_num’ may be used uninitialized in
                       this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
  return uio_num;
         ^~~~~~~

This is a false positive: gcc is not able to see that when e != NULL,
uio_num is always set. Fix the warning by initializing uio_num to -1,
and by the way, change the type to int.
