Replace dma_pool_alloc and memset with dma_pool_zalloc.
This fixes memset accessing out of range address when reply_queue
count is less than RDPQ_MAX_INDEX_IN_ONE_CHUNK (i.e. 16) in non-RDPQ
mode.

In non-RDPQ mode, the driver allocates a single contiguous pool of
size reply_queue's count * reqly_post_free_sz. But here the driver is
always memsetting this pool with size 16 *  reqly_post_free_sz. so if
reply queue count is less then 16 (i.e. when msix vectors enabled is
less then 16) then the driver is accessing out of range address and
this results in 'BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at
fff0x...x' bug.

This bug got introduced from below commit id,
commit 8012209eb26b7819385a6ec6eae4b1d0a0dbe585 ("scsi: mpt3sas:
Handle RDPQ DMA allocation in same 4G region")

To fix this out of range access, the driver uses dma_pool_zalloc API
to allocate the pool. so that this pool will be initialized with zeros
of actual pool size by this API itself

Applied to 5.8/scsi-queue, thanks!
