Initialize bytes_written at the callers uniformly so that CIFSSMBWrite2() and
CIFSSMBWrite() do not have to worry about it.

Would it be better to just zero out *nbytes at the beginning of
CIFSSMBWrite like Write2 does? Whatever value is in that field should
always be overwritten before those functions return, so I'm not sure I
see the value in pushing the initialization of it out to the callers.

Might be. I don't have any strong preference to either approach but I
think there should be uniformity and we should remove redundant
initializations.

But my patch fixed the callers because none of these callers assign any
value to bytes_written. The just pass address of bytes_written to
CIFSSMBWRITE calls.

I'll resend this patch if that seems a better approach.

I think it's generally better to not rely on the callers to get this
right. You've patched them up now, but if someone adds new callers of
these functions later then they also have to get this right. Coding
defensively can help save you from those sorts of bugs.

Since the value should always be overwritten in these functions, it
makes more sense to me to have those functions just zero it out
unconditionally early on. If you think the callers should do this, then
you probably want to add a comment to these functions to make it clear
that the caller is responsible for initializing that variable.

Very valid. Coding defensively makes it less error-prone.

Absolutely.
