The existing sg_zero_buffer() function is a bit restrictive. For
example protection information (PI) blocks are usually initialized
to 0xff bytes. As its name suggests sgl_memset() is modelled on
memset(). One difference is the type of the val argument which is
u8 rather than int. Plus it returns the number of bytes (over)written.

Change implementation of sg_zero_buffer() to call this new function.

May as well make this one liner a static inline in the header. Just
rename this function to sgl_memset so the diff is clearer

Yes, fine. I can roll a new version.
