This is hard to trace, and it seems there is a way to have it, not sure
practically possible:
rte_lpm6_add_v1705
add_step
if (depth <= bits_covered) {
...
return 0 <--- so tbl_next stays untouched.
tbl = tbl_next
add_step
tbl[tbl_index]
So same comment as previous, if there is a practically available path,
this patch makes it harder to find by hiding compiler warning, so adding
maintainer for decision.
