[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.4 32/38] misc: vmw_vmci: fix kernel info-leak by initializing dbells in vmci_ctx_get_chkpt_doorbells()

[Sasha Levin]

From: Anant Thazhemadam <anant.thazhemadam@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 31dcb6c30a26d32650ce134820f27de3c675a45a ]

A kernel-infoleak was reported by syzbot, which was caused because
dbells was left uninitialized.
Using kzalloc() instead of kmalloc() fixes this issue.
