From 78fbc824ed8225edd80cdc57771d5ca4f7aae95e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Neuling Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2008 14:57:39 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Fix uninitialised variable in VSX alignment code This fixes an uninitialised variable in the VSX alignment code. It can cause warnings from GCC (noticed with gcc-4.1.1). Gcc is actually correct in this instance, and this bug could cause the alignment interrupt handler to send a SIGSEGV to the process on a legitimate access.
