[dm-devel] [PATCH 02/10] md/dm-crypt: Reduce the scope for a variable in crypt_alloc_tfms()

From: Markus Elfring <elfring at users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2016 14:05:25 +0200

Move the definition for the variable "err" (including its declaration)
into an if branch (so that the corresponding setting will only be performed
if a call of the function "crypto_alloc_skcipher" failed as before
this refactoring).
