alloc_block_buf() can either use external allocator by calling
vmemmap_alloc_block() or when available use pre-allocated vmemmap_buf
to do allocation. In either case, alloc_block_buf() knows when to zero
memory based on the "zero" argument. This is why it is not needed to
zero vmemmap_buf beforehand. Let clients of alloc_block_buf() to
decide whether that is needed.
