KEYS: Pre-clear struct key on allocation

The second word of key->payload does not get initialised in key_alloc(), but
the big_key type is relying on it having been cleared.  The problem comes when
big_key fails to instantiate a large key and doesn't then set the payload.  The
big_key_destroy() op is called from the garbage collector and this assumes that
the dentry pointer stored in the second word will be NULL if instantiation did
not complete.

Therefore just pre-clear the entire struct key on allocation rather than trying
to be clever and only initialising to 0 only those bits that aren't otherwise
initialised.

The lack of initialisation can lead to a bug report like the following if
big_key failed to initialise its file:
