wait: using uninitialized member of wait queue
The "flags" member of "struct wait_queue_t" is used in several places in the kernel code without beeing initialized by init_wait(). "flags" is used in bitwise operations. If "flags" not initialized then unexpected behaviour may take place. Incorrect flags might used later in code. Added initialization of "wait_queue_t.flags" with zero value into "init_wait". Signed-off-by: Evgeny Kuznetsov <EXT-Eugeny.Kuznetsov@nokia.com> [ The bit we care about does end up being initialized by both prepare_to_wait() and add_to_wait_queue(), so this doesn't seem to cause actual bugs, but is definitely the right thing to do -Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
