From efeb862bd5bc001636e690debf6f9fbba98e5bfd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Sun, 5 May 2019 23:01:22 +0100 Subject: io_uring: fix shadowed variable ret return code being not checked Currently variable ret is declared in a while-loop code block that shadows another variable ret. When an error occurs in the while-loop the error return in ret is not being set in the outer code block and so the error check on ret is always going to be checking on the wrong ret variable resulting in check that is always going to be true and a premature return occurs. Fix this by removing the declaration of the inner while-loop variable ret so that shadowing does not occur.
