[PATCH] lib: remove back_str initialization

From: Tom Rix
Date: Sat Apr 02 2022 - 09:17:04 EST


Clang static analysis reports this false positive
glob.c:48:32: warning: Assigned value is garbage
or undefined
char const *back_pat = NULL, *back_str = back_str;
^~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~

back_str is set after back_pat and it's use is
protected by the !back_pat check. It is not
necessary to initialize back_str, so remove
the initialization.
