Subject: [PATCH] selftests: kvm/x86: Fix the warning in lib/x86_64/processor.c

From: Jinrong Liang <cloudliang@...cent.com>

The following warning appears when executing
make -C tools/testing/selftests/kvm

In file included from lib/x86_64/processor.c:11:
lib/x86_64/processor.c: In function ':
include/x86_64/processor.h:290:2: warning: 'ecx' may be used uninitialized in this
function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
  asm volatile("cpuid"
  ^~~
lib/x86_64/processor.c:1523:21: note: 'ecx' was declared here
  uint32_t eax, ebx, ecx, edx, max_ext_leaf;

Just initialize ecx to remove this warning.

Fixes: c8cc43c1eae2 ("selftests: KVM: avoid failures due to reserved
HyperTransport region")
