As part of the cleanup of the I/O request structure, allocate them zeroed out. This fixes a bug that was introduced in the patch-set titled: Staging: hv: Cleanup-storage-drivers-phase-II. A corrected version of this patch-set was sent out earlier, however the earlier (buggy) version of this patch-set was already applied. This patch fixes the problem. Signed-off-by: K. Y.
