Initialize 'status1' with a default value to resolve the static analysis
smatch reported error "uninitialized symbol 'status1'".
The 'status1' variable is used to create a buff using "kmemdup".
So, ensure to initialize the value before it is read.

This patch fixes the below smatch reported errors.
sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c:2462 snd_rme_rate_get() error: uninitialized symbol 'status1'.
sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c:2467 snd_rme_rate_get() error: uninitialized symbol 'status1'.
sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c:2472 snd_rme_rate_get() error: uninitialized symbol 'status1'.
sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c:2495 snd_rme_sync_state_get() error: uninitialized symbol 'status1'.
sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c:2501 snd_rme_sync_state_get() error: uninitialized symbol 'status1'.
sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c:2522 snd_rme_spdif_if_get() error: uninitialized symbol 'status1'.
sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c:2535 snd_rme_spdif_format_get() error: uninitialized symbol 'status1'.
sound/usb/mixer_quirks.c:2548 snd_rme_sync_source_get() error: uninitialized symbol 'status1'.

The below is the flow of 'status1' it is used before initialization.

snd_rme_rate_get -> status1 is uninitialized and passed
        snd_rme_get_status1 -> passed as is
                snd_rme_read_value -> passed as is
                        snd_usb_ctl_msg -> created buf from status1 using kmemdup
                                usb_control_msg -> sent buf for reading/writing

Description of "usb_control_msg", states as
" * @data: pointer to the data to send"

Later from Usb control request, dst buf is copied to src buf but usb
control msg request is made before initialization.

All the above warning reported functions, call snd_rme_get_status1().

v2:
Corrected as suggested by Takashi Iwai to silence the warnings
from callee side as it can reduce number of changes.

v1:

Thank you.
