The memset call is made right after malloc call which
can return a NULL pointer upon failure causing a
segmentation fault. Fix this by adding a null check
right after malloc() and then do memset().

The SoB should come after the commit message here.

All these below are candidates for calloc(), can we just use that instead and
simplify the below.

  	if (!array) {
  		fprintf(stderr, "Mem alloc error (nr_cpus:%u)\n", nr_cpus);
  		exit(EXIT_FAIL_MEM);
