The compilation with gcc-6.3.0 and EXTRA_CFLAGS=-Og gives the following error:
CC cmdline_parse.o cmdline_parse.c: In function ‘match_inst’: cmdline_parse.c:227:5: error: ‘token_p’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] if (token_p) { ^ This is a false positive, gcc is not able to see that we always go in the loop at least once, initializing token_p. Fix the warning by initializing token_p to NULL.
