dm-pcache: zero cache_info before default init

Browse source

pcache_meta_find_latest() leaves whatever it last copied into the
caller’s buffer even when it returns NULL. For cache_info_init(),
that meant cache->cache_info could still contain CRC-bad garbage when
no valid metadata exists, leading later initialization paths to read
bogus flags.

Explicitly memset cache->cache_info in cache_info_init_default()
so new-cache paths start from a clean slate. The default sequence
number assignment becomes redundant with this reset, so it drops out.
