Jose E. Marchesi 009367099e bpf: Avoid uninitialized value in BPF_CORE_READ_BITFIELD
[Changes from V1:
 - Use a default branch in the switch statement to initialize `val'.]

GCC warns that `val' may be used uninitialized in the
BPF_CRE_READ_BITFIELD macro, defined in bpf_core_read.h as:

	[...]
	unsigned long long val;						      \
	[...]								      \
	switch (__CORE_RELO(s, field, BYTE_SIZE)) {			      \
	case 1: val = *(const unsigned char *)p; break;			      \
	case 2: val = *(const unsigned short *)p; break;		      \
	case 4: val = *(const unsigned int *)p; break;			      \
	case 8: val = *(const unsigned long long *)p; break;		      \
        }       							      \
	[...]
	val;								      \
	}								      \

This patch adds a default entry in the switch statement that sets
`val' to zero in order to avoid the warning, and random values to be
used in case __builtin_preserve_field_info returns unexpected values
for BPF_FIELD_BYTE_SIZE.

Tested in bpf-next master.
No regressions.

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 reStructuredText 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.
