Assign to zero - it's fine ;-)

This is in fact deliberate; I'd add a comment in the source:
/* force touching of each page despite the optimizer */
The basic problem is that we memory map the file, and then want to
force each page in turn into memory - the issue with that is that we
don't really care what is there; so we do this bogus XOR sum in 'c' -
but without the volatile clever compilers will realise that this is not
doing anything and optimise it all away - so we will touch no pages, and
the I/O will not get done, and 'pagein' becomes a no-op ;-)

Best to have cleanups just on master I think unless they are bug fixes.
Anyhow - thanks for catching this :-)
All the best,
Michael.
