commit d21cf3c16b1191f3154a51e0b20c82bf851cc553 upstream.

breakage introduced by following patch
commit 27663c5855b10af9ec67bc7dfba001426ba21222
Author: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com>

acpi_evaluate_integer() does not clear passed variable if
there is an error at evaluation.
So if we ignore error, we must supply initialized variable.
