#1543890 — [PATCH] rbtree: use designated initializers

Prepare to mark sensitive kernel structures for randomization by making
sure they're using designated initializers. These were identified during
allyesconfig builds of x86, arm, and arm64, with most initializer fixes
extracted from grsecurity.

Works for me.

One note on these structures, the intent is that GCC value propagation
completely does away with everything and results in inlining the actual
functions. Older versions of GCC had a wee bit of trouble with this, but
recent versions do just that, not a single actual structure should end
up being emitted in the object code.
