Subject: [PATCH 5/5] USB: ftdi_sio: remove unnecessary initialisations

Return values are being initialised to zero only to be unconditionally
assigned to a few instructions later. This may give the impression that
zero is returned on success, which is not the case.

Note also that ftdi_NDI_device_setup never reports errors.
