From: Johannes Berg <johannes.b...@intel.com>
Evidently, when I did this previously, we didn't have more than
10 policies and didn't run into the reallocation path, because
it's missing a memset() for the unused policies. Fix that.
Fixes: d07dcf9aadd6 ("netlink: add infrastructure to expose policies to
userspace")
