wait: using uninitialized member of wait queue
The "flags" member of "struct wait_queue_t" is used in several places in
the kernel code without beeing initialized by init_wait(). "flags" is
used in bitwise operations.
If "flags" not initialized then unexpected behaviour may take place.
Incorrect flags might used later in code.
Added initialization of "wait_queue_t.flags" with zero value into
"init_wait".

[ The bit we care about does end up being initialized by both
prepare_to_wait() and add_to_wait_queue(), so this doesn't seem to
cause actual bugs, but is definitely the right thing to do -Linus ]
