Same reply as before: the function already exists and is already 
initialising other lists therefore it seems sensible to initialise the 
new list as well. Whether the function as a whole is redundant or not is 
unclear. The same duplicated initialisation also happens in 
intel_render_ring_init_dri(). If someone thinks these can all be 
simplified and wants to only do the initialisation once in one place 
then that should be another patch.
