[PATCH 1/3] netfilter: nf_tables: avoid uninitialized variable warning

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
Date: 2016-09-30 16:06:34
Also in: lkml, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: netfilter, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Pablo Neira Ayuso, Florian Westphal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

The newly added nft_range_eval() function handles the two possible
nft range operations, but as the compiler warning points out,
any unexpected value would lead to the 'mismatch' variable being
used without being initialized:

net/netfilter/nft_range.c: In function 'nft_range_eval':
net/netfilter/nft_range.c:45:5: error: 'mismatch' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

This can be trivially avoided by added a 'default:' clause.

Fixes: 0f3cd9b36977 ("netfilter: nf_tables: add range expression")
