[PATCH] ACPI: pfr_update: zero-initialize capability query result

query_capability() copies four ACPI buffers into fixed-size fields using
the firmware-supplied lengths.  The existing overflow guard rejects
oversized buffers, but shorter buffers are accepted and leave trailing
bytes of the stack-allocated cap_hdr uninitialized.  PFRU_IOC_QUERY_CAP
then copies the entire structure to userspace.

Zero-initialize cap_hdr before querying the firmware.  This preserves the
existing handling of short firmware responses while preventing disclosure
of kernel stack data.  Oversized buffers remain rejected.

A QEMU _DSM returning one-byte buffers reproduced nonzero stack suffix
bytes in all four fields.  With this change, the ioctl still succeeds and
each unwritten suffix is zero-filled, while 64-byte buffers continue to
return -EINVAL.
