[PATCH] fs: avoid uninitialized var warning

[PATCH] fs: avoid uninitialized var warning

[Sascha Hauer]

With gcc-12.2.1-clang-15.0.2-glibc-2.36-binutils-2.39-kernel-6.0.5-sanitized
we get a warning about path.dentry being used uninitialized:

fs/fs.c:1978:43: warning: 'path.dentry' may be used uninitialized -Wmaybe-uninitialized]

I can't see how this can really happen. gcc seems to think that this
sequence used in lookup_fast() can result in returning 0:

	if (IS_ERR(dentry))
		return PTR_ERR(dentry);

This shouldn't happen. Silence the warning by initializing 'path'.
