With uninitialized variable warnings, quite often Smatch is not the only
or first checker to report the bug so I normally search lore to see if
it has already been fixed.  In this case there were no bug reports from
Nathan Chancelor and the second version of the patch wasn't marked as a
v2 and there was no note explaining it like:

---
v2: fixed uninitialized variable warning

So it wasn't immediately clear that it had been fixed already.
