Subject: [PATCH 4.4 150/241] iio: common: ssp_sensors: Initialize calculated_time in ssp_common_process_data

[ Upstream commit 6f9ca1d3eb74b81f811a87002de2d51640d135b1 ]

When building with -Wsometimes-uninitialized, Clang warns:

drivers/iio/common/ssp_sensors/ssp_iio.c:95:6: warning: variable
'calculated_time' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false
[-Wsometimes-uninitialized]

While it isn't wrong, this will never be a problem because
iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp only uses calculated_time
on the same condition that it is assigned (when scan_timestamp
is not zero). While iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp is marked
as inline, Clang does inlining in the optimization stage, which
happens after the semantic analysis phase (plus inline is merely
a hint to the compiler).

Fix this by just zero initializing calculated_time.
