This is an interesting regression with gcc-8, showing a harmless warning
for correct code:
In file included from include/linux/kernel.h:13:0,
...
from drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_debugfs.c:23:
include/linux/printk.h:301:2: error: 'eq' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
printk(KERN_ERR pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__)
^~~~~~
In file included from drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_debugfs.c:58:0:
drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_debugfs.h:451:31: note: 'eq' was declared here
I managed to reduce the warning into a small test case for gcc-8 that I
reported in the gcc bugzilla[1].
As a workaround, this changes the logic to move the two assignments of
'eq' out of the conditions and instead make the index conditional. This
works for all configurations I tried and avoids adding a bogus
initialization.

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.
