xsk_getsockopt() is copying uninitialized stack memory to userspace when
`extra_stats` is `false`. Fix it.
Fixes: 8aa5a33578e9 ("xsk: Add new statistics")

Doing `= {};` is sufficient since currently `struct xdp_statistics` is
defined as follows:
struct xdp_statistics {
__u64 rx_dropped;
__u64 rx_invalid_descs;
__u64 tx_invalid_descs;
__u64 rx_ring_full;
__u64 rx_fill_ring_empty_descs;
__u64 tx_ring_empty_descs;
};
When being copied to the userspace, `stats` will not contain any
uninitialized "holes" between struct fields.
Changes in v2:
- Remove the "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" tag. (Suggested by Song Liu
[off-list ref])
- Initialize `stats` by assignment instead of using memset().
