#1609161 — [PATCH] netvsc: fix unititialized return value in variable ret

FromColin King <colin.king@canonical.com>
Date2017-03-25 15:20 +0100
Subject[PATCH] netvsc: fix unititialized return value in variable ret
Message-ID<toUHT-1Wx-9@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

It is possible for an uninitialized value of ret to be returned
so fix this by initializing ret to zero.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1420762 ("Uninitialized scalar variable")

Fixes: 163891d7d429 ("netvsc: handle offline mtu and channel change")
