[PATCH] qib_qp: Replace rcu_assign_pointer() with RCU_INIT_POINTER()

[Andreea-Cristina Bernat]

The uses of "rcu_assign_pointer()" are NULLing out the pointers.

"1.   This use of RCU_INIT_POINTER() is NULLing out the pointer"
it is better to use it instead of rcu_assign_pointer() because it has a
smaller overhead.

The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used:

- rcu_assign_pointer
