initialize these variables to NULL to fix this.

These are false positives as the default branches in both cases exit the program with error(..).
Since we do not observe these in normal kernel compilations: are you enabling non-standard warnings?
Hi Willem,
this warning appeared while building the 'tools/testing/selftests/net' multiple times. Cmd used to build make -C tools/testing/selftests/net CC=clang V=1 -j8
while test building by "make -C tools/testing/selftests/ CC=clang V=1 -j8" doesn't raises these warning.
This does not reproduce for me.
Can you share the full clang command that V=1 outputs, as well as the output oof clang --version.
