[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: Remove hidden double memset from amdgpu_vm_pt_clear()

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin at igalia.com>

When CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO is set and so -ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero
compiler option active, compiler fails to notice that later in
amdgpu_vm_pt_clear() there  is a second memset to clear the same on stack
struct amdgpu_vm_update_params.

If we replace this memset with an explicit automatic variable initializer,
compiler can then see it and avoid clearing this struct twice.

This is perhaps a bit questionable, regardless of how annoying it is to
know there is this double memset.
