The state member of the napi_struct is not initialised correctly, it sets the SCHED bit without initialising the state to zero first. This results in peculiar behaviour if the original napi_struct didn't come from a zero initialised region to start with.
This patch just sets it directly using the appropriate bitfield constant.
