In some configurations, gcc cannot trace the state of variables across a spin_unlock() barrier, leading to a warning about correct code: xgene_enet_main.c: In function 'xgene_enet_start_xmit': ../../../phy/mdio-xgene.h:112:14: error: 'mss_index' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] Here we can trivially move the assignment before that spin_unlock, which reliably avoids the warning.
