Subject: [PATCH] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Avoid uninitialized asid in case of error

Static checker is complaining about the ASID possibly set uninitialized.
This only happens in case of error and this value would be ignored anyway.

A simple fix would be just to initialize the local variable to zero,
this path will only be reached on the first attach to a domain where
the CD is already initialized to zero.
This avoids having to bloat the function with an error path.
