3.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
commit 16caf5b6101d03335b386e77e9e14136f989be87 upstream.
Variable 'err' needn't be initialized when nfs_getattr() uses it to check whether it should call generic_fillattr() or not. That can result in spurious error returns. Initialize 'err' properly.
