Many v4l drivers currently don't initialize their struct v4l2_subdev
with zeros, so since the addition of internal_ops in commit 45f6f84, we
are at risk of random oopses when code in v4l2_device_register_subdev
tries to dereference sd->internal_ops->*, as can be shown by the report
at http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745213

So make sure internal_ops is cleared in v4l2_subdev_init.
