From dacc18029ef69ed225fdb4d7c3215c285e9e8ef4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Namjae Jeon Date: Sat, 11 Apr 2026 00:18:30 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] ntfs: fix uninitialized variable in ntfs_map_runlist_nolock Smatch reported that ctx_needs_reset could be used uninitialized if ntfs_map_runlist_nolock() fails early when a search context is provided. Specifically, if the function returns -EIO because the attribute is resident, the code jumps to err_out. This initializes ctx_needs_reset to false to satisfy the static checker.
