Fix a sharp edge in xsk_umem__create and xsk_socket__create. Almost all of the members of the ring buffer structs are initialized, but the "cached_xxx" variables are not all initialized. The caller is required to zero them. This is needlessly dangerous. The results if you don't do it can be very bad. For example, they can cause xsk_prod_nb_free and xsk_cons_nb_avail to return values greater than the size of the queue. xsk_ring_cons__peek can return an index that does not refer to an item that has been queued. I have confirmed that without this change, my program misbehaves unless I memset the ring buffers to zero before calling the function. Afterwards, my program works without (or with) the memset.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
