Hi,

CoverityScan detected a couple of issues, one of which was introduced
with the following commit:

commit 6106c0f82481e686b337ee0c403821fb5c3c17ef
Author: NeilBrown <neilb at suse.com>

CoverityScan CID#1464078 ("Uninitialized scalar variable")

I'm not sure what the expected error return for these conditions are, so
I've not fixed these as I didn't want to hazard a guess.

static int
lnet_selftest_init(void)
{
        int nscheds;
        int rc;

// note here rc is not initialized

        int i;

        lst_serial_wq = alloc_ordered_workqueue("lst_s", 0);
        if (!lst_serial_wq) {
                CERROR("Failed to create serial WI scheduler for LST\n");
                return rc;

// garbage value in rc is returned

        }
        lst_init_step = LST_INIT_WI_SERIAL;

        nscheds = cfs_cpt_number(lnet_cpt_table());
        lst_test_wq = kvmalloc_array(nscheds, sizeof(lst_test_wq[0]),
                                        GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO);
        if (!lst_test_wq)
                goto error;

// this also returns garbage in rc
