[PATCH v2 50/63] tracing: Use memset_startat() to zero struct trace_iterator

In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time field bounds checking for memset(), avoid intentionally writing across neighboring fields. Use memset_startat() to avoid confusing memset() about writing beyond the target struct member. Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Ingo Molnar Si
