On a 32 bit kernel sizeof(void *) is not 64 bits as hv_mpb_array
requires. Also the buffer needs to be cleared or the upper bytes
will contain junk.

Suggested-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>
Signed-off-by: Cathy Avery <cavery@redhat.com>

ChangeLog:

v1) Initial submission
v2) Remove memset and replace kmalloc with kzalloc.
