The variable written is not initialized and subsequent increments of the
variable are using an uninitialized value. Fix this by initializating it
at the start of the function.

Fixes: 5b53a9d40c4f ("Input: serio_raw - use guard notation for locks and other resources")

Thank you for the patch but I already have one fixing this up queued.
