drm/amd/powerplay: Zero initialize some variables
Clang warns (only Navi warning shown but Arcturus warns as well): drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../powerplay/navi10_ppt.c:1534:4: warning: variable 'asic_default_power_limit' is used uninitialized whenever '?:' condition is false [-Wsometimes-uninitialized] smu_read_smc_arg(smu, &asic_default_power_limit); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../powerplay/inc/amdgpu_smu.h:588:3: note: expanded from macro 'smu_read_smc_arg' ((smu)->funcs->read_smc_arg?

As the code is currently written, if read_smc_arg were ever NULL, arg would fail to be initialized but the code would continue executing as normal because the return value would just be zero. There are a few different possible solutions to resolve this class of warnings which have appeared in these drivers before: 1. Assume the function pointer will never be NULL and eliminate the wrapper macros. 2. Have the wrapper macros initialize arg when the function pointer is NULL. 3. Have the wrapper macros return an error code instead of 0 when the function pointer is NULL so that the callsites can properly bail out before arg can be used. 4. Initialize arg at the top of its function. Number four is the path of least resistance right now as every other change will be driver wide so do that here. I only make the comment now as food for thought.
