[PATCH 10/13] netfilter: nf_tables: avoid uninitialized variable warning

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
Date: 2016-10-21 10:12:20
Also in: 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

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

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 removes the variable in question and instead moves the
condition into the switch itself, which is potentially more
efficient than adding a bogus 'default' clause as in my
first approach, and is nicer than using the 'uninitialized_var'
macro.
