COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK() is supposed to used as an initializer,
in other words, it should only be used in assignment expressions or
compound literals. So the usage in drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c:

	COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK(flush.cmp);

, is inappropriate.

Besides, this usage could also break compilations for another fix to
reduce stack sizes caused by COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK(), because
that fix changes COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK() from rvalue to lvalue,
and usage as above will report error:

	drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c: In function 'acpi_nfit_flush_probe':
	include/linux/completion.h:77:3: error: value computed is not used [-Werror=unused-value]
	  (*({ init_completion(&work); &work; }))

This patch fixes this by replacing COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK() with
init_completion() in acpi_nfit_flush_probe(), which does the same
initialization without any other problem.
