[PATCH] drm/tyr: gpu_info: zero out new/unused fields

[Deborah Brouwer]

If a new field is added to the struct drm_panthor_gpu_info in the panthor
uapi, Tyr must initialize this field or it will cause a compile error.

To pre-emptively avoid compile errors, use ..pin_init::zeroed() to zero
out all new fields added to this struct. Tyr can subsequently change the
initialization as necessary. Also use it instead of manually zeroing out
existing fields at the end of the struct.

Merged into drm-rust-next, thanks!

With regards to sashiko bot, we should look into whether the
MaybeZeroable that bindgen adds to structs applies on this struct. If
so, we can remove our unsafe impl block. But it's not an issue in this
patch.
