Subject: SUNRPC: spin svc_rqst initialization to its own function
From: Jeff Layton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Move the initialzation in __svc_create_thread that happens prior to thread
creation to a new function.  Export the function to allow services to have
better control over the svc_rqst structs.

Also rearrange the rqstp initialization to prevent NULL pointer dereferences
in svc_exit_thread in case allocations fail.
