Nicolin Chen 9a96876e3c iommufd/selftest: Fix build warnings due to uninitialized mfd 
Commit 869c788909 ("selftests: harness: Stop using setjmp()/longjmp()")
changed the harness structure. For some unknown reason, two build warnings
occur to the iommufd selftest:

iommufd.c: In function ‘wrapper_iommufd_mock_domain_all_aligns’:
iommufd.c:1807:17: warning: ‘mfd’ may be used uninitialized in this function
 1807 |                 close(mfd);
      |                 ^~~~~~~~~~
iommufd.c:1767:13: note: ‘mfd’ was declared here
 1767 |         int mfd;
      |             ^~~
iommufd.c: In function ‘wrapper_iommufd_mock_domain_all_aligns_copy’:
iommufd.c:1870:17: warning: ‘mfd’ may be used uninitialized in this function
 1870 |                 close(mfd);
      |                 ^~~~~~~~~~
iommufd.c:1819:13: note: ‘mfd’ was declared here
 1819 |         int mfd;
      |             ^~~

All the mfd have been used in the variant->file path only, so it's likely
a false alarm.

FWIW, the commit mentioned above does not cause this, yet it might affect
gcc in a certain way that resulted in the warnings. It is also found that
ading a dummy setjmp (which doesn't make sense) could mute the warnings:

The job of this selftest is to catch kernel bug, while such warnings will
unlikely disrupt its role. Mute the warning by force initializing the mfd
and add an ASSERT_GT().

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
