Subject: [PATCH 06/10] powerpc: Drop unnecessary initializations in
 __copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault()

Now that the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel
has been bumped to 15.0.0, the zero initializations of val and suffix
added by commit 0d76914a4c99 ("powerpc/inst: Optimise
copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault()") to avoid a bogus case of
-Wuninitialized can be dropped because the preprocessor condition is
always false.
