clang fails to see that rbd_assert(0) ends in an unreachable code
path and warns about a subsequent use of an uninitialized variable
when CONFIG_PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES is set:

drivers/block/rbd.c:2402:4: error: variable 'ret' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false
      [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
                        rbd_assert(0);
                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/block/rbd.c:563:7: note: expanded from macro 'rbd_assert'
                if (unlikely(!(expr))) {                                \
                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
include/linux/compiler.h:48:23: note: expanded from macro 'unlikely'

                        rbd_assert(0);

                if (unlikely(!(expr))) {                                \
                ^
drivers/block/rbd.c:2376:9: note: initialize the variable 'ret' to silence this warning
        int ret;
               ^
                = 0
1 error generated.

This seems to be a bug in clang, but is easy to work around by using
an unconditional BUG().

Hi Arnd,

You did a couple of these last year in commit c6244b3b2377 ("rbd: avoid
Wreturn-type warnings").  Let's change all of those default cases to BUG
in one go.  Do you want to do that or should I?

Thanks,

                Ilya

Ah, I had completely forgotten about that. Different bug and different
compiler, but same solution ;-)

I've prepared another patch now and sent it out, please
apply it on top. I'd like this one-line patch to stay separate though
since it captures the warning message and may need to
be backported to stable kernels later.
