[PATCH 5.13 720/800] coresight: core: Fix use of uninitialized pointer

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-07-12 08:54:07
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: arm/coresight framework and drivers, hardware tracing facilities, the rest · Maintainers: Suzuki K Poulose, Alexander Shishkin, Linus Torvalds

From: Junhao He <redacted>

[ Upstream commit d777a8991847729ec4e2a13fcad58c2b00bb19dc ]

Currently the pointer "sink" might be checked before initialized. Fix
this by initializing this pointer.
