[PATCH -tip] x86: kvm/paging_tmpl.h intialize the variable beforeusing it

[Jaswinder Singh Rajput]

May be in some cases paging64_fetch() and paging32_fetch() will return sptep
without initialization.

Also fixes compilation warning:
  CC      arch/x86/kernel/io_delay.o
 arch/x86/kvm/paging_tmpl.h: In function âpaging64_fetchâ:
 arch/x86/kvm/paging_tmpl.h:279: warning: âsptepâ may be used uninitialized in this function
 arch/x86/kvm/paging_tmpl.h: In function âpaging32_fetchâ:
 arch/x86/kvm/paging_tmpl.h:279: warning: âsptepâ may be used uninitialized in this function
