Series [next] mm/shmem: Fix check on uninitialized pointer 'folio' | expand

Commit Message

In the case where shmem_swapin returns null, the jump to the error return
path via label 'failed' will end up with the uninitialized pointer folio
being null checked a few statements later. Fix this by ensuring folio is
initialized to null.

Detected by clang scan:
mm/shmem.c:1704:7: warning: variable 'folio' is used uninitialized
whenever 'if' condition is true [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]

Fixes: 2b58b3f33ba2 ("mm/shmem: convert shmem_swapin_page() to shmem_swapin_folio()")
