[PATCH] get_empty_filp tweaks, inline epoll_init_file()

Eliminate a handful of cache references by keeping current in a register
instead of reloading (helps x86) and avoiding the overhead of a function
call.  Inlining eventpoll_init_file() saves 24 bytes.  Also reorder file
initialization to make writes occur more sequentially.
