[PATCH linux-next] firewire: fw_device_init: âminorâ €™ may be used uninitialized

[Tim Gardner]

'firewire: convert to idr_alloc()' accidentally orphaned 'minor'.

drivers/firewire/core-device.c: In function âfw_device_initâ:
drivers/firewire/core-device.c:1029:24: warning: âminorâ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]

If this patch is correct, then it also ought to go to stable
if it misses 3.8 final.
