netdevsim: Zero-initialize memory for new map's value in function nsi…
…m_bpf_map_alloc [ Upstream commit 4812217 ] Zero-initialize memory for new map's value in function nsim_bpf_map_alloc since it may cause a potential kernel information leak issue, as follows: 1. nsim_bpf_map_alloc calls nsim_map_alloc_elem to allocate elements for a new map. 2. nsim_map_alloc_elem uses kmalloc to allocate map's value, but doesn't zero it. 3. A user application can use IOCTL BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM to get specific element's information in the map. 4. The kernel function map_lookup_elem will call bpf_map_copy_value to get the information allocated at step-2, then use copy_to_user to copy to the user buffer. This can only leak information for an array map.
