The following code: qla82xx_rom_fast_read(ha, 0, &n) only initializes 'n' if it succeeds. Since 'n' may be reported in a debug message even if no ROM reads succeeded, initialize 'n' to zero. This patch fixes the following sparse warning: qla_nx.c:1218: qla82xx_pinit_from_rom() error: uninitialized symbol 'n'.
