[PATCH] [v3] [media] dvb: avoid warning in dvb_net

[Arnd Bergmann]

With gcc-5 or higher on x86, we can get a bogus warning in the
dvb-net code:

drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_net.c: In function 'dvb_net_ule':
arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:78:22: error: '*((void *)&dest_addr+4)' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

The problem here is that gcc doesn't track all of the conditions
to prove it can't end up copying uninitialized data.
This changes the logic around so we zero out the destination
address earlier when we determine that it is not set here.
This allows the compiler to figure it out.

When I got the same warning earlier, Mauro created commit 8b0041db80dd
("[media] dvb-net: split the logic at dvb_net_ule() into other
functions") to clean up the code, and that addressed all the warnings
I saw earlier, but I now got a different randconfig build that
needs either this patch or Mauro's variant "dvb_net: simplify
the logic that fills the ethernet address" that does the same
change slightly differently.
