Steven Rostedt (VMware) 39d9c1c103 bootconfig: Initialize ret in xbc_parse_tree()
The do while loop continues while ret is zero, but ret is never
initialized. The check for ret in the loop at the while should always be
initialized, but if an empty string were to be passed in, q would be NULL
and p would be '\0', and it would break out of the loop without ever
setting ret.

Set ret to zero, and then xbc_verify_tree() would be called and catch that
it is an empty tree and report the proper error.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
