nvmet: use kzalloc instead of ZERO_PAGE in nvme_execute_identify_ns_nvm()
The nvme_execute_identify_ns_nvm function uses ZERO_PAGE for copying
SG list with all zeros. As ZERO_PAGE would not necessarily return the
virtual-address of the zero page, we need to first convert the page
address to kernel virtual-address and then use it as source address
for copying the data to SG list with all zeros. Using return address
of ZERO_PAGE(0) as source address for copying data to SG list would
fill the target buffer with random/garbage value and causes the
undesired side effect.
As other identify implemenations uses kzalloc for allocating a zero
filled buffer, we decided use kzalloc for allocating a zero filled
buffer in nvme_execute_identify_ns_nvm function and then use this
buffer for copying all zeros to SG list buffers. So esentially, we
now avoid using ZERO_PAGE.
