Cppcheck doesn't track that tinfo is reassigned to &tinfo_new when NULL, leading to a false uninitvar warning at line 1099. Add inline suppression.

I think this is the same cppcheck bug as I encountered, a dozen or so lines below this. See https://sourceforge.net/p/cppcheck/discussion/general/thread/fecde59085/ and/or https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/14191

Like the other case, I think we'll need unmatchedSuppression here, or we'll get the unmatched suppression warning once using a fixed version of cppcheck. Possibly also with earlier cppcheck versions that didn't trip on this.
