ctx->drvflags is checked in the if clause before beeing initialized. Move initialization before first usage.
Note, that the if clause was backported with commit 75f82a703b30 ("cdc_ncm: Set NTB format again after altsetting switch for Huawei devices") from mainline (upstream commit 2b02c20ce0c2 ("cdc_ncm: Set NTB format again after altsetting switch for Huawei devices"). In mainline, the initialization is at the right place before the if clause.
