iio: inkern: allocate zeroed memory
Use kzalloc() rather than kmalloc() for initializing the iio_channel structure. This patch enables the iio_dev and iio_chan_spec are set to NULL. This may prevent the page fault problem because the pointer of iio_chan_spec is initialized as NULL. The iio_chan_spec is updated only in case that the IIO map has specific channel label. When the map has no ADC channel label, then the value of iio_chan_spec remains as invalid pointer. To prevent this problem, the pointer should be initialized as NULL.
