Right, I'll revert this. In an earlier version I had a more
substantial change here, and just didn't fully revert it.

That works, but GCC can warn in this case (-Wmissing-braces) depending
on the definition of struct uffd_args. I liked switching to calloc
because it avoids any possibility of that even as we add/remove things
to struct uffd_args in the future.

Since it's a selftest and this function is only called exactly once,
it didn't seem worth the code making certain we free it, instead just
leaving it to be cleaned up when the process exits.
