Coverity 9656: Forward NULL

This was a false positive the callpath being walked is impossible
because the splat_kmem_cache_test_kcp_alloc() function will ensure
kcp->kcp_kcd[0] is initialized to NULL.  However, there is no harm
is making this explicit for the test case so I'm adding a line to
clearly set it to correct the analysis.
