Description
PreFast says the 'wil::TraceLoggingProvider::{ctor}' in include/wil/TraceLogging.h has an issue: "Variable 'wil::TraceLoggingProvider::m_errorReportingType' is uninitialized. Always initialize a member variable (type.6).".
That seems to mean the following constructor neglected to initialize m_errorReportingType:
TraceLoggingProvider(_In_ TraceLoggingProvider const&) = delete;
