[PATCH 5.7 14/79] Staging: rtl8188eu: rtw_mlme: Fix uninitialized variable authmode

From: Dinghao Liu <dinghao.liu@zju.edu.cn>

commit 11536442a3b4e1de6890ea5e805908debb74f94a upstream.

The variable authmode can be uninitialized. The danger would be if
it equals to _WPA_IE_ID_ (0xdd) or _WPA2_IE_ID_ (0x33). We can avoid
this by setting it to zero instead. This is the approach that was
used in the rtl8723bs driver.
