Arnd Bergmann 72eed06376 crypto: qat - avoid an uninitialized variable warning
After commit 9e442aa6a753 ("x86: remove DMA_ERROR_CODE"), the inlining
decisions in the qat driver changed slightly, introducing a new false-positive
warning:

drivers/crypto/qat/qat_common/qat_algs.c: In function 'qat_alg_sgl_to_bufl.isra.6':
include/linux/dma-mapping.h:228:2: error: 'sz_out' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
drivers/crypto/qat/qat_common/qat_algs.c:676:9: note: 'sz_out' was declared here

The patch that introduced this is correct, so let's just avoid the
warning in this driver by rearranging the unwinding after an error
to make it more obvious to the compiler what is going on.

The problem here is the 'if (unlikely(dma_mapping_error(dev, blp)))'
check, in which the 'unlikely' causes gcc to forget what it knew about
the state of the variables. Cleaning up the dma state in the reverse
order it was created means we can simplify the logic so it doesn't have
to know about that state, and also makes it easier to understand.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
