SubjectRe: [PATCH] staging: lustre: lnet: avoid uninitialized return value

> gcc warns that the latest workqueue change leads to returning an
> uninitialized variable:
>
> drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/selftest/module.c: In function 'lnet_selftest_init':
> drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/selftest/module.c:98:10: error: 'rc' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
>
> A failure from alloc_ordered_workqueue() tends to indicate an
> out-of-memory condition, so return -ENOMEM in both cases.
> The second error path was a preexisting bug, where we always
> returned zero after a kvmalloc_array() failure.
