The source of this warning is in iosys_map_clear() called from dma_buf_vmap(). It conditionally sets values based on map->is_iomem. The iosys_map variables are allocated uninitialized on the stack leading to ->is_iomem having all kinds of values and not only 0/1.

Fix this by zeroing the iosys_map variables.
