ice_set_fc takes a u8 pointer 'aq_failures' as an input parameter. If this function encounters an error, in addition to returning an appropriate ice_status enum code, it also populates aq_failures with a link specific error value.
If the caller does not initialize this variable to 0 before calling ice_set_fc, it would appear as if ice_set_fc returned an error code in this variable. So initialize it to 0.
