[PATCH 1/3] epoll: initialize slack for negative timeout values

[Shawn Bohrer <shawn.bohrer@gmail.com>]

When a negative timeout value is passed to epoll the 'slack' variable is
currently unitialized:

fs/eventpoll.c: In function ‘ep_poll’:
fs/eventpoll.c:1119: warning: ‘slack’ may be used uninitialized in this function

In this case a NULL pointer is passed to schedule_hrtimeout_range()
specifying an infinite timeout.  The current implementation of
schedule_hrtimeout_range() does not use slack in this case, but we
should still initialize slack to 0 in case future implementations use it.
