Subject: RDMA/core: avoid uninitialized variable warning in create_udata
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
Git-commit: cb9fd89f91337aaca9c96d265930f22b31462e5e
References: bsc#1046306 FATE#322942

As Dan pointed out, the rework I did makes it harder for smatch and other
static checkers to figure out what is going on with the uninitialized
pointers.

By open-coding the call in create_udata(), we make it more readable for
both humans and tools.
