This code generates a Smatch warning:
drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-tmc-etr.c:947 tmc_etr_buf_insert_barrier_packet()
error: uninitialized symbol 'bufp'.
The problem is that if tmc_sg_table_get_data() returns -EINVAL, then
when we test if "len < CORESIGHT_BARRIER_PKT_SIZE", the negative "len"
value is type promoted to a high unsigned long value which is greater
than CORESIGHT_BARRIER_PKT_SIZE. Fix this bug by adding an explicit
check for error codes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
