[PATCH] uml: make daemon transport behave properly

Browse Source 
Avoid uninitialized data in the daemon_data structure.  I used this transport
before doing proper setup before-hand, and I got some very nice SLAB
corruption due to freeing crap pointers.  So just make sure to clear
everything when appropriate.
