Initialize local variable trans_support before it is used rather than after. It is supposed to contain the value of a register on the controller containing bits that describe which transport modes the controller supports (e.g. "performant", "ioaccel1", "ioaccel2"). A NULL pointer dereference will almost certainly occur if trans_support is not initialized at the right point. If for example the uninitialized trans_support value does not have the bit set for ioaccel2 support when it should be, then ioaccel2_alloc_cmds_and_bft() will not get called as it should be and the h->ioaccel2_blockFetchTable array will remain NULL instead of being allocated. Too late, trans_support finally gets initialized with the correct value with ioaccel2 mode bit set, which later causes calc_bucket_map() to be called to fill in h->ioaccel2_blockFetchTable[]. However h->ioaccel2_blockFetchTable is NULL because it didn't get allocated because earlier trans_support wasn't initialized at the right point. Fixes: e1f7de0cSigned-off-by: Stephen M.
