Don't use a newfangled auto initializer. Initialize everything by

assignment to avoid one bug and several pessimizations.

In the old version, gcc-2.6.3 (i386 version) generates 16 bytes
of static data and copies it using 4 4-byte load-stores.  gcc-2.7.2
generates 2 1-byte stores and calls memset() to zero 14 bytes.
Linking fails because memset() doesn't exist in the kernel.

In both versions, the 2 bytes stored directly are all that is
actually used unless the null padding at the end is used, since
the 3 4-byte words in the middle are initialized again by struct
assignment.  These words are misaligned.  gcc generates misaligned
load-stores for (small) misaligned struct copies.
