Initializing the static variable to 0 causes the following error when exec checkpatch: ERROR: do not initialise statics to 0 FILE: sound/sound_core.c:142: static int preclaim_oss = 0; Static variable does not need to be initialised to 0, because compiler will initialise all uninitialised statics to 0. Thus, remove the unneeded initializations.
