A new warning in clang [1] points out that id_reg is uninitialized then
passed to memstick_init_req() as a const pointer:
drivers/memstick/core/memstick.c:330:59: error: variable 'id_reg' is uninitialized when passed as a const pointer argument here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized-const-pointer]
330 | memstick_init_req(&card->current_mrq, MS_TPC_READ_REG, &id_reg,
| ^~~~~~
Commit de182cc8e882 ("drivers/memstick/core/memstick.c: avoid -Wnonnull
warning") intentionally passed this variable uninitialized to avoid an
-Wnonnull warning from a NULL value that was previously there because
id_reg is never read from the call to memstick_init_req() in
h_memstick_read_dev_id(). Just zero initialize id_reg to avoid the
warning, which is likely happening in the majority of builds using
modern compilers that support '-ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero'.
