If the IFS scan test exits prematurely due to a timeout before
completing a single run, the union ifs_status remains uninitialized,
leading to incorrect test status reporting. To prevent this, always
initialize the union ifs_status to zero.

Thank you for your contribution, it has been applied to my local
review-ilpo branch. Note it will show up in the public
platform-drivers-x86/review-ilpo branch only once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.
