commit f67bc15e526bb9920683ad6c1891ff9e08981335 upstream. 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. 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.
