Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: fix Wmaybe-uninitialized warning

gcc throws warning message as below:

‘clone_src_i_size’ may be used uninitialized in this function
[-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
 #define IS_ALIGNED(x, a)  (((x) & ((typeof(x))(a) - 1)) == 0)
                       ^
fs/btrfs/send.c:5088:6: note: ‘clone_src_i_size’ was declared here
 u64 clone_src_i_size;
   ^
The clone_src_i_size is only used as call-by-reference
in a call to get_inode_info().

Silence the warning by initializing clone_src_i_size to 0.
