A new warning in clang [1] points out a couple of places where a hdr variable is not initialized then passed along to skb_put_data().
drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt7996/mcu.c:1894:21: warning: variable 'hdr' is uninitialized when passed as a const pointer argument here [-Wuninitialized-const-pointer] 1894 | skb_put_data(skb, &hdr, sizeof(hdr)); | ^~~ drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt7996/mcu.c:3386:21: warning: variable 'hdr' is uninitialized when passed as a const pointer argument here [-Wuninitialized-const-pointer] 3386 | skb_put_data(skb, &hdr, sizeof(hdr)); | ^~~
Zero initialize these headers as done in other places in the driver when there is nothing stored in the header.
