Thank you for this nice report!

However, damos_set_effective_quota() is called from damos_adjust_quota(), which
ensures at least one among quota->{ms,sz,get_score} is nonzero.  And
damos_set_effective_quota() ensures quota->{ms,get_score} is non-zero at the
beginning of the function.  Then the function sets esz anyway, for non-zero
quota->ms and quota->get_score.  Hence the uninitialized variable usage cannot
happen, if I understand correctly.  Please let me know if I'm missing
something.


Thanks,
SJ
