Make sure that any otherwise uninitialised fields of usvc are zero. This has been obvserved to cause a problem whereby the port of fwmark services may end up as a non-zero value which causes scheduling of a destination server to fail for persisitent services. As observed by Deon van der Merwe <dvdm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>. This fix suggested by Julian Anastasov <ja@xxxxxx>. For good measure also zero udest.

I think it is relevant for 2.6.33 as well as -stable.
