Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] gpio: pca953x: avoid to use uninitialized value pinctrl

From: Haibo Chen <haibo.chen@....com>

There is a variable pinctrl declared without initializer. And then
has the case (switch operation chose the default case) to directly
use this uninitialized value, this is not a safe behavior. So here
initialize the pinctrl as 0 to avoid this issue.
This is reported by Coverity.
