Using warning-silencing tricks is dangerous as it /// papers over real bugs (or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated /// compiler warnings (e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it /// is uninitialized, either simply initialize the variable or make compiler /// changes. Keep in mind that in most cases, if an initialization is /// obviously redundant, the compiler's dead-store elimination pass will make /// sure there are no needless variable writes. /// /// Later, commit 3942ea7a10c9 ("deprecated.rst: Remove now removed /// uninitialized_var") removed this section because all initializations of /// this kind were cleaned-up from the kernel.
