Dennis Dalessandro da86dc175b IB/hfi1: Properly allocate rdma counter desc memory
When optional counter support was added the allocation of the memory
holding the counter descriptors was not cleared properly. This caused
WARN_ON()s in the IB/sysfs code to be hit.

This is because the uninitialized memory made some of the counters wrongly
look like optional counters. Use kzalloc.

While here change the sizeof() calls to use the pointer rather than the
name of the type.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
