Subject: [PATCH 4.19 416/422] usb: usbtmc: uninitialized symbol actual in usbtmc_ioctl_clear

From: Guido Kiener <guido.kiener@...de-schwarz.com>

[ Upstream commit 9a83190300867fb024d53f47c31088e34188efc1 ]

Fix uninitialized symbol 'actual' in function usbtmc_ioctl_clear.

When symbol 'actual' is not initialized and usb_bulk_msg() fails,
the subsequent kernel debug message shows a random value.
