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:

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

It's always preferable IMHO to keep any initialisation as localised as
possible, so that the compiler can continue to warn about uninitialised
usages elsewhere. In this case that would mean doing the rc = 0 in the
switch, something like:

But then that makes me wonder if that's actually correct?

If we get an action that we don't recognise should we just throw it away
like that? (by doing hostdata->action = IBMVSCSI_HOST_ACTION_NONE). Tyrel?
