[PATCH] tools/sched_ext: scx_nest: zero-initialize stats counter array

From: David Carlier

Date: Wed Feb 11 2026 - 16:52:31 EST


The local cnts array in read_stats() is not initialized before being
accumulated into per-CPU stats, which may lead to reading garbage
values. Zero it out with memset alongside the existing stats array
initialization.
