Subject: ASoC: rsnd: Add missing initialization of ADG req_rate

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <[email protected]>

commit 8b27418f300cafbdbbb8cfa9c29d398ed34d6723 upstream.

If the "clock-frequency" DT property is not found, req_rate is used uninitialized, and the "audio_clkout" clock will be created with an arbitrary clock rate.

This uninitialized kernel stack data may leak to userspace through /sys/kernel/debug/clk/clk_summary, cfr. the value in the "rate" column:

clock enable_cnt prepare_cnt rate accuracy phase
--------------------------------------------------------------------
audio_clkout 0 0 4001836240 0 0
