Since dirty_bitmap pointer is allocated with function __vcalloc(),
there is __GFP_ZERO flag set in the implementation about this function
__vcalloc_noprof(). It is not necessary to clear dirty_bitmap buffer
with zero again.

unless I miss something obvious, this does not clear anything, but set
all bits to 1.
0 is not for "write 0" (i.e. clear), but for "start at offset 0".
So all bits are set to 1 in this case.
