[PATCH 1/3] rtlwifi: fix uninitialized rtlhal->last_suspend_sec time

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
Date: 2017-11-06 13:56:37
Also in: lkml, netdev, stable
Subsystem: realtek wireless driver (rtlwifi family), the rest · Maintainers: Ping-Ke Shih, Linus Torvalds

We set rtlhal->last_suspend_sec to an uninitialized stack variable,
but unfortunately gcc never warned about this, I only found it
while working on another patch. I opened a gcc bug for this.

Presumably the value of rtlhal->last_suspend_sec is not all that
important, but it does get used, so we probably want the
patch backported to stable kernels.
