RDMA/mlx4: Avoid false error about access to uninitialized gids array
[ Upstream commit 1f53d88cbb0dcc7df235bf6611ae632b254fccd8 ] Smatch generates the following false error report: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/main.c:393 mlx4_ib_del_gid() error: uninitialized symbol 'gids'. Traditionally, we are not changing kernel code and asking people to fix the tools. However in this case, the fix can be done by simply rearranging the code to be more clear. Fixes: e26be1bfef81 ("IB/mlx4: Implement ib_device callbacks") Link: https://patch.msgid.link/6a3a1577463da16962463fcf62883a87506e9b62.1733233426.git.leonro@nvidia.com Signed-off-by: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
