Syzbot reports [1] an uninitialized value issue found by KMSAN in
dib3000_read_reg().
Local u8 rb[2] is used in i2c_transfer() as a read buffer; in case
that call fails, the buffer may end up with some undefined values.
Since no elaborate error handling is expected in dib3000_write_reg(),
simply zero out rb buffer to mitigate the problem.
