[PATCH 3/4] audit: uninitialize static variables

Checkpatch tool reports an error at variable declaration "ERROR: do not initialise statics to 0" This is due to the fact that these variables are stored in the buffer In the .bss section, one can not set an initial value Here we can trust the compiler to automatically set them to zero. The variable has since been uninitialized.
