sizeof() is currently using the wrong argument when used in a call to
memset().  Notice that wqe is a pointer to union lpfc_wqe128, not to
union lpfc_wqe.

Fix this by using union lpfc_wqe128 instead of lpfc_wqe as argument
of sizeof().

Actually the correct way to avoid potential problems like this is

	memset(wqe, 0, sizeof(*wqe));

Agree with James on style.   This one reference was a little interesting. It purposely was something smaller than the whole structure as the latter end of the structure ends up getting set later.  But not a big deal to correct as indicated.
