[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH S33 05/15] ice: fix stack leakage

From: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg at intel.com>

In the case of an invalid virtchannel request the driver
would return uninitialized data to the VF from the PF stack
which is a bug.  Fix by initializing the stack variable
earlier in the function before any return paths can be taken.
