[ Upstream commit 9183f01b5e6e32eb3f17b5f3f8d5ad5ac9786c49 ]
As Peter points out, if we were to disconnect and then reconnect this driver from a device, the "global" state of the device would contain odd values and could cause problems. Fix this up by just initializing the whole thing to 0 at probe() time.
Ideally this would be a per-device variable, but given the age and the total lack of users of it, that would require a lot of s/./->/g changes for really no good reason.
