    xen: Use -Wuninitialized and -Winit-self
    
    Assigning a variable to itself is an anti-pattern.  It introduces definite 
UB
    in an attempt to silence a warning about possible UB.
    
    As it's definite undefined behaviour, it also mis-compiles in simple cases,
    using whatever stale value happened to be in the allocated register.
    
    Clang includes -Wuninitialized within -Wall, but GCC only includes it in
    -Wextra, which is not used by Xen at this time.
    
    Furthermore, the specific pattern of assigning a variable to itself in its
    declaration is only diagnosed by GCC with -Winit-self.  Clang does diagnose
    simple forms of this pattern with a plain -Wuninitialized, but it fails to
    diagnose the instances in Xen that GCC manages to find.
    
    GCC, with -Wuninitialized and -Winit-self notices:
    
      arch/x86/time.c: In function â??read_pt_and_tscâ??:
      arch/x86/time.c:297:14: error: â??bestâ?? is used uninitialized in this 
function [-Werror=uninitialized]
        297 |     uint32_t best = best;
            |              ^~~~
      arch/x86/time.c: In function â??read_pt_and_tmcctâ??:
      arch/x86/time.c:1022:14: error: â??bestâ?? is used uninitialized in this 
function [-Werror=uninitialized]
       1022 |     uint64_t best = best;
            |              ^~~~
    
    Fix these up to start with a value of ~0, which is also more robust in the
    case that something goes wrong.

accuracy")
    Fixes: 3f3906b462d5 ("x86/APIC: calibrate against platform timer when 
possible")
