+commit dcb2829b8eff61463b0869614ddb07b1c86cecaa

+ linux/probe-input: don't use error prio init
+
+ it may happen in the out: case that LIBHAL_FREE_DBUS_ERROR (&error) is
+ called before the error structure is initialized via
+ dbus_error_init (&error). This could lead to a segfault during startup
+ as seen in dmesg:
+
+ |Intel AES-NI instructions are not detected.
+ |padlock: VIA PadLock not detected.

+
+ What I run into seems to be reported as Debian #562068 [0]. This patch
+ makes the segfault go away on my machine.
