Subject[PATCH] initialize all fields
Date
This patch fixes a case where a structure field is not initialized before
the structureis copied to user level.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/). It uses other references to the same
structure in the current file to find the set of fields that should be
initialized.

identifier x,x1;
