Subject: [PATCH] net: e100: remove redundant static variable initializations

Remove '= 0' from static variables eeprom_bad_csum_allow and use_io.
Static variables are zero-initialized by default.

Found by checkpatch.pl

Not worth the churn for existing code.

Quoting documentation:

  Clean-up patches
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  
  Netdev discourages patches which perform simple clean-ups, which are not in
  the context of other work. For example:
  
  * Addressing ``checkpatch.pl``, and other trivial coding style warnings
  * Addressing :ref:`Local variable ordering<rcs>` issues
  * Conversions to device-managed APIs (``devm_`` helpers)
  
  This is because it is felt that the churn that such changes produce comes
  at a greater cost than the value of such clean-ups.
  
See: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/next/process/maintainer-netdev.html#clean-up-patches
