Clang static analysis reports this warning

hooks.c:5765:6: warning: 4th function call argument is an uninitialized value
        if (selinux_xfrm_postroute_last(sksec->sid, skb, &ad, proto))
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

selinux_parse_skb() can return ok without setting proto.  The later call
to selinux_xfrm_postroute_last() does an early check of proto and can
return ok is the garbage proto value matches.  So initialize proto.

Fixes: eef9b41622f2 ("selinux: cleanup selinux_xfrm_sock_rcv_skb() and selinux_xfrm_postroute_last()")

Thanks Tom.  I don't think this is something that could be easily
triggered on a normal system, even if the compatibility mode was
enabled, but this is something that we should fix regardless.  I've
merged this into selinux/stable-5.16 and will send this up to Linus as
soon as it clears the normal automated testing.
