6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: David Howells <[email protected]> commit 19eef1d98eeda3745df35839190b7d4a4adea656 upstream. Fix an uninitialised variable (key) in afs_alloc_anon_key() by setting it to cell->anonymous_key. Without this change, the error check may return a false failure with a bad error number. Most of the time this is unlikely to happen because the first encounter with afs_alloc_anon_key() will usually be from (auto)mount, for which all subsequent operations must wait - apart from other (auto)mounts. Once the call->anonymous_key is allocated, all further calls to afs_request_key() will skip the call to afs_alloc_anon_key() for that cell.
