Thanks for the patch. Minor nits looking for test cases that should have no warning (like the two examples provided in the bug).

clang/test/Sema/warn-uninitialized-statement-expression.c

Can you please add a case like foo without z in it (so that no warnings are expected, as in pr42604)? (You can keep both test cases, just looking for 1 more, as the first case).

Ditto about adding a clear case that should not warn.

This needs a trailing comment like:

int x = my_widget.x; // fixme: we should probably warn about this case

and file a bug about it. Doesn't need to be solved here.

Can you please file a bug pointing to this test case?

I don't think this problem really has anything to do with statement expressions; consider:

struct Widget a = (init2(&a), a);

... which has the same behaviour and presumably produces the same warning.

It's just a C / C++ difference. In C++, these examples are undefined because the lifetime of the object hasn't started yet, but I think in C they're valid. We should just disable the whole warning in C mode and leave it to the CFG analysis.

LGTM aside from a comment request.

This should probably have a comment explaining why we only do it in C++ mode.
