Smatch complains that we might not initialize "queue". The issue is callers like setup_vq() from virtio_pci_modern.c where "num" could be something like 2 and "vring_align" is 64. In that case, vring_size() is less than PAGE_SIZE. It won't happen in real life, but we're getting the value of "num" from a register so it's not really possible to tell what value it holds with static analysis.
Let's just silence the warning.
