[51/64] tracing: Use struct_group() to zero struct trace_iterator

Commit Message

Kees Cook July 27, 2021, 8:58 p.m. UTC

In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time
field bounds checking for memset(), avoid intentionally writing across
neighboring fields.

Add struct_group() to mark region of struct trace_iterator that should
be initialized to zero.
