Subject: [PATCH 3.11 002/138] rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: initialize packet_beacon

3.11.10.11 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

commit 328e203fc35f0b4f6df1c4943f74cf553bcc04f8 upstream.

static code analysis from cppcheck reports:

[drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8188ee/trx.c:322]:
  (error) Uninitialized variable: packet_beacon

packet_beacon is not initialized and hence packet_beacon
contains garbage from the stack, so set it to false.
