Hi Stephen,

This broke the build for MIPS for the malta_defconfig when using the
latest Mentor toolchain.

In file included from include/linux/fs.h:16:0,
from fs/fuse/fuse_i.h:13,
from fs/fuse/file.c:9:
fs/fuse/file.c: In function 'fuse_file_poll':
include/linux/rbtree.h:82:28: warning: 'parent' may be used
uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
fs/fuse/file.c:2580:27: note: 'parent' was declared here
drivers/char/random.c: In function 'init_std_data':
drivers/char/random.c:1249:1: internal compiler error: in
add_insn_before, at emit-rtl.c:3857
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <https://sourcery.mentor.com/GNUToolchain/> for instructions.
make[2]: *** [drivers/char/random.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/char] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....


If you want to reproduce it you can do the following steps:
- Get a MIPS Mentor toolchain from
https://sourcery.mentor.com/GNUToolchain/release2554
- make ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=$TOOLCHAIN_PATH/bin/mips-linux-gnu-
malta_defconfig
- make ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=$TOOLCHAIN_PATH/bin/mips-linux-gnu-


We are working with the toolchain group to come up with a workaround in
the code to resolve the problem.
