[PATCH -mm] epoll: cleanup: use RCU_INIT_POINTER when nulling

[Eric Wong]

It is always safe to use RCU_INIT_POINTER to NULL a pointer.
This results in slightly smaller/faster code.

 Andrew: Sorry for the noise and requiring these cleanups.  Would you
 want a squashed commit with all my RCU+ws-related epoll changes to keep
 history cleaner?  I will try to be more careful and require less
 followup patches in the future :x
