clang warns:

drivers/scsi/ibmvscsi/ibmvscsi.c:2126:7: warning: variable 'rc' is used
uninitialized whenever switch case is taken [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        case IBMVSCSI_HOST_ACTION_NONE:
             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/scsi/ibmvscsi/ibmvscsi.c:2151:6: note: uninitialized use occurs
here
        if (rc) {
            ^~

Initialize rc to zero so that the atomic_set and dev_err statement don't
trigger for the cases that just break.
