[PATCH 1/5] Input: db9 - clear unused function pointers

From: Sudip Mukherjee <sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com>
Date: 2015-11-17 13:40:32
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: input (keyboard, mouse, joystick, touchscreen) drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Dmitry Torokhov, Linus Torvalds

db9_parport_cb is a local uninitialized structure and the member
function pointers will be pointing to arbitrary locations unless they
are cleared.

Fixes: 2260c419b52b ("Input: db9 - use parallel port device model")
