'struct ovs_zone_limit' has more members than initialized in
ovs_ct_limit_get_default_limit().  The rest of the memory is a random
kernel stack content that ends up being sent to userspace.

Fix that by using designated initializer that will clear all
non-specified fields.

Fixes: 11efd5cb04a1 ("openvswitch: Support conntrack zone limit")

I review the code, userspace don't use the count of ovs_zone_lime
struct, but this patch looks to to me.
Thanks Ilya.
