[PATCH 54/64] ipv6: Use struct_group() to zero rt6_info

In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time
field bounds checking for memset(), avoid intentionally writing across
neighboring fields.

Add struct_group() to mark region of struct rt6_info that should be
initialized to zero.
