printk: avoid -Wsometimes-uninitialized warning
clang notices that the pi_get_entry() function would use
uninitialized data if it was called with a non-NULL module
pointer on a kernel that does not support modules:
kernel/printk/index.c:32:6: error: variable 'nr_entries' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
if (!mod) {
^~~~
kernel/printk/index.c:38:13: note: uninitialized use occurs here
if (pos >= nr_entries)
^~~~~~~~~~
kernel/printk/index.c:32:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always true
if (!mod) {
Rework the condition to make it clear to the compiler that we are always
in the second case. Unfortunately the #ifdef is still required as the
definition of 'struct module' is hidden when modules are disabled.
Fixes: 337015573718 ("printk: Userspace format indexing support")
