Subject: [PATCH] hfs: Change structure initialisation to C99 style

To allow for structure randomisation, replace the in order
struct initialisation style with explicit field style.
Also, remove an unnecessary initialisation since NULL values do not
need to be explicitly initialised.

The Coccinelle semantic patch used to make this change is as follows:

@decl@
identifier i1,fld;
type T;
field list[n] fs;
@@

struct i1 {
 fs
 T fld;
 ...};

@@
identifier decl.i1,i2,decl.fld;
expression e;
position bad.p, bad.fix;
@@

struct i1 i2@p = { ...,
+ .fld = e
- e@fix
 ,...};
