async: initialise list heads to fix crash
9fdb04cdc55 ("async: replace list of active domains with global list of pending items") added a struct list_head global_list in struct async_entry, which isn't initialised. This means that if !domain->registered at __async_schedule(), then list_del_init() will be called on the list head in async_run_entry_fn with both pointers NULL, causing a crash. This is fixed by initialising both the global_list and domain_list list_heads after kzalloc'ing the entry. This was noticed due to dapm_power_widgets() which uses ASYNC_DOMAIN_EXCLUSIVE, which initialises the domain->registered to 0.
