[PATCH 0/4] delete useless initialization

[Julia Lawall]

These patches fix cases where a variable is initialized in some non-trivial
way, and the result is immediately overwritten with the result of some
allocation function.

[PATCH 1/4] fs/ext3/balloc.c: delete useless initialization

[Julia Lawall]

From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

Delete nontrivial initialization that is immediately overwritten by the
result of an allocation function.

The semantic match that makes this change is as follows:
