[ovs-dev] [PATCH] netdev-afxdp: Fix umem creation failure due to uninitialized config.

[Ilya Maximets]

Later version of 'struct xsk_umem_config' contains additional field
'flags'.  OVS doesn't use that field passing uninitialized stack
memory to the 'xsk_umem__create()' call that could fail with
'Invalid argument' if 'flags' are non-zero or, even worse, create
umem with unexpected properties.

We need to clear the whole structure explicitly to avoid this kind
of issues.
