Problem:

 * The duplicated memset() wasted too much time. For example:
   with 5k paths, "sudo multipathd -k'show paths'" command will have
   at least 5k times of memset().

Reasons:

 * The memory passing to snprint_xxx(e.g. snprint_multipath) is already
   zeroed by MALLOC().

 * No need to zero memory before snprintf which will always terminate
   the string with '\0'.
