KVM: x86: Fix kernel info-leak in KVM_HC_CLOCK_PAIRING hypercall

kvm_pv_clock_pairing() allocates local var
"struct kvm_clock_pairing clock_pairing" on stack and initializes
all it's fields besides padding (clock_pairing.pad[]).

Because clock_pairing var is written completely (including padding)
to guest memory, failure to init struct padding results in kernel
info-leak.

Fix the issue by making sure to also init the padding with zeroes.
