Subject[PATCH][next] ubifs: fix uninitialized error variable err
Date
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Variable err is not initialized and so the check to see if it is
non-zero is basically checking a random garbage value. Fix this
by initializing err to zero.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1451370 ("Uninitialized variable")

Fixes: 781f675e2d7e ("ubifs: Fix unlink code wrt. double hash lookups")
