Static variables do not need to be initialised to 0, because compiler
will initialise all uninitialised statics to 0. Thus, remove the
unneeded initializations.

I would strongly prefer that we leave this as-is.

There is no problem with explicitly initializing a static variable to 0, and it
clearly aligns with the cmpxchg arguments below. Removing the initialization
makes that *less* clear.

Thanks,
