[PATCH] refscale: Fix use of uninitalized wait_queue_head_t

[Waiman Long]

It was found that running the refscale test might sometimes crash the
kernel with the following error:

[ 8569.952896] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffffffffe8
[ 8569.952900] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode

[ 8569.952973]  </TASK>

This is likely caused by the fact that init_waitqueue_head() is called
after the ref_scale_reader kthread is created. So the kthread may try
to use the waitqueue head before it is properly initialized. Fix this
by initializing the waitqueue head first before kthread creation.
