PATCH 1/1 ipc namespace: initialize init_ipc_ns.count to 1

Any objections to this patch?

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ipc namespace: initialize init_ipc_ns.count to 1

That's one count for the init task. Nothing else pins an ipc ns (i.e. not ipcns->mq_mnt). The only references to init_ipc_ns are the sysctl .data calculations, which should remain safe.
