Add a gfp_zero flag to 'struct kvm_mmu_memory_cache' and use it to control __GFP_ZERO instead of hardcoding a call to kmem_cache_zalloc(). A future patch needs such a flag for the __get_free_page() path, as gfn arrays do not need/want the allocator to zero the memory. Convert the kmem_cache paths to __GFP_ZERO now so as to avoid a weird and inconsistent API in the future. No functional change intended.
