Bytes 40-65535 of 65536 are uninitialized
Memory access of size 65536 starts at ffff888045a40000

This happens, because we’re copying a ‘struct btrfs_data_container’ back
to user-space. This btrfs_data_container is allocated in
‘init_data_container()’ via kvmalloc(), which does not zero-fill the
memory.

Fix this by using kvzalloc() which zeroes out the memory on allocation.
