Hmm.
At a minimum, the *description* of this bug is garbage.
It talks about an "uninitialized completion pointer", but then the fix
actually depends on it being initialized - just initialized to NULL.
I do believe that it always is initialized, and I have pulled this.
but I really think the explanations here are actively misleading.
Because there's a big difference between "uninitialized" and "not
pointing to a completion".
