[PATCH] RDMA/vmw_pvrdma: Use zeroing memory allocator than allocator/memset

[Himanshu Jha]

Use dma_zalloc_coherent for allocating zeroed
memory and remove unnecessary memset function.

Done using Coccinelle.
Generated-by: scripts/coccinelle/api/alloc/kzalloc-simple.cocci
0-day tested with no failures.
