While npo.copy and npo.meta are initialized in xenvif_rx_action, fields
such as npo.meta_prod are directly used later in xenvif_gop_skb without
being initialized first. Although the output of xenvif_rx_action is based
on the difference between new npo->meta_prod and old npo->meta_prod, it is
better to initialize them to 0 at the beginning.
