## \[PATCH\]\[next\] Input: iqs5xx: Ensure error\_bl is initialized on error exit path

Currently if the call to qs5xx_fw_file_parse fails the error return
exit path will read the uninitialized variable error_bl. Fix this
by ensuring error_bl is initialized to zero.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: 2539da6677b6 ("Input: iqs5xx - preserve bootloader errors")
