Valgrind reported some uses of uninitialized memory when running the
regression tests under it. This patch addresses the following valgrind
reported issues:
1. LogBuffer flush:
Syscall param write(buf) points to uninitialised byte(s)
at Log::flush_thread_main(void*)
by LogBuffer::LogBuffer(LogConfig const*, LogObject*, ...)
2. Cache test pwrite:
Syscall param pwrite64(buf) points to uninitialised byte(s)
at AIOThreadInfo::aio_thread_main(AIOThreadInfo*)
by Stripe::Stripe(CacheDisk*, long, long, int, int)

Nice catch. Both memories are just allocated and not initialized.
