Subject: [PATCH 5.19 0106/1157] scsi: qla2xxx: Zero undefined mailbox IN registers

From: Bikash Hazarika <bhazarika@...vell.com>

commit 6c96a3c7d49593ef15805f5e497601c87695abc9 upstream.

While requesting a new mailbox command, driver does not write any data to
unused registers.  Initialize the unused register value to zero while
requesting a new mailbox command to prevent stale entry access by firmware.
