Clang warns about what is clearly a case of passing an uninitalized

1 error generated.
However, this function is empty, and its arguments are never evaluated,
so gcc in contrast does not warn here. Both compilers behave in a
reasonable way as far as I can tell, so we should change the code
to avoid the warning everywhere.
We could just eliminate the lpphy_papd_cal() function entirely,
given that it has had the TODO comment in it for 10 years now
and is rather unlikely to ever get done. I'm doing a simpler
change here, and just pass the 'oldgains' variable in that has
been initialized, based on the guess that this is what was
originally meant.

Thanks. I will submit a patch that removes lpphy_papd_cal(). You are correct
that it is unlikely ever to be implemented.
