[DTrace-devel] [PATCH] Avoid valgrind warning about conditional jump based on uninitialized value

[Kris Van Hees]

The dt_modsym_update_alt() has conditionals based on the content of
sym_name, which is initialized from  a sscanf() statement.  While the
implementation ensures that a value is assigned, valgrind does not seem
to know that.  By providing a default initializer value, complaints go
away.
