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.
