Zero-fill element values for all cpus, just as when not using prealloc. This is the only way the bpf program can ensure known initial values for cpus other than the current one ('onallcpus' cannot be set when coming from the bpf program). The scenario is: bpf program inserts some elements in a per-cpu map, then deletes some (or userspace does). When later adding new elements using bpf_map_update_elem(), the bpf program can only set the value of the new elements for the current cpu. When prealloc is enabled, previously deleted elements are re-used. Without the fix, values for other cpus remain whatever they were when the re-used entry was previously freed.
