The stack variable 'dnode' in __tipc_sendmsg() may theoretically end up tipc_node_get_mtu() as an unitilalized variable.
We fix this by intializing the variable at declaration. We also add a default else clause to the two conditional ones already there, so that we never end up in the named function if the given address type is illegal.
