Subject: [PATCH 5.15 04/28] bcache: memset on stack variables in bch_btree_check() and bch_sectors_dirty_init()

From: Coly Li <colyli@...e.de>

commit 7d6b902ea0e02b2a25c480edf471cbaa4ebe6b3c upstream.

The local variables check_state (in bch_btree_check()) and state (in
bch_sectors_dirty_init()) should be fully filled by 0, because before
allocating them on stack, they were dynamically allocated by kzalloc().
