Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: lenovo-wmi-other: Zero initialize WMI arguments
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Adds explicit initialization of wmi_method_args_32 declarations with
zero values to prevent uninitialized data from being sent to the device
BIOS when passed.

No functional change intended.
