Bug Description

The zesty kernel carries a backport of the KVM MSI/PCIe passthrough patchset from v4.11-rc1. After merging, static analysis detected a bug in this patch where a function can return an uninitialized value. It isn't clear what the risk of not carrying this patch would be - but it is an obvious correction.
