So this warning only shows up with gcc 9.x. I was using 8.x from my
distro. Will upgrade.

I believe the "fix" is to simply initialize the three variables to
zero (See attached diff). I'll squash that into the patch unless
someone disagrees.

In practice though, we depend on the enum tsens_irq_type irq_type
function parameter to throw a compilation error if we use anything not
defined in the enum. That is also the reason we removed the 'default'
case during review - we should never end up with an undefined value at
runtime.
