[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.3 52/71] libbpf: fix false uninitialized variable warning

STALE2556d

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2019-10-01 17:00:43
Also in: bpf, lkml, stable
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [library] (libbpf), the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Linus Torvalds

From: Andrii Nakryiko <redacted>

[ Upstream commit aef70a1f44c0b570e6345c02c2d240471859f0a4 ]

Some compilers emit warning for potential uninitialized next_id usage.
The code is correct, but control flow is too complicated for some
compilers to figure this out. Re-initialize next_id to satisfy
compiler.
