From: Emil Tantilov <emil.s.tantilov@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit dcfd6b839c998bc9838e2a47f44f37afbdf3099c ]

This patch is resolving Coverity hits where padding in a structure could
be used uninitialized.

- Initialize fwd_cmd.pad/2 before ixgbe_calculate_checksum()

- Initialize buffer.pad2/3 before ixgbe_hic_unlocked()
