USB: storage: avoid use of uninitialized values in error path
When usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist() returns with USB_STOR_XFER_ERROR, it returns without writing to its parameter *act_len. Further, the two callers of usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist(): usb_stor_bulk_srb() and usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sg(), use the passed variable partial without checking the return value. Hence, the uninitialized value of partial is then used in the further execution of those two functions. Clang-analyzer detects this potential control and data flow and warns: drivers/usb/storage/transport.c:469:40: warning: The right operand of '-' is a garbage value [clang-analyzer-core.UndefinedBinaryOperatorResult] scsi_set_resid(srb, scsi_bufflen(srb) - partial); ^ drivers/usb/storage/transport.c:495:15: warning: Assigned value is garbage or undefined [clang-analyzer-core.uninitialized.Assign] length_left -= partial; ^ When a transfer error occurs, the *act_len value is probably ignored by the higher layers. But it won't hurt to set it to a valid number, just in case. For the two early-return paths in usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist(), the amount of data transferred is 0. So if act_len is not NULL, set *act_len to 0 in those paths. That makes clang-analyzer happy.
