    selftests/memfd: fix -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning in memfd_test
    
      memfd_test.c: In function 'mfd_fail_grow_write.part.0':
      memfd_test.c:685:13: warning: '<unknown>' may be used uninitialized [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
        685 |         l = pwrite(fd, buf, mfd_def_size * 8, 0);
            |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    
    pwrite() is declared with attribute 'access (read_only, 2, 3)', so GCC
    knows it reads from the buffer. malloc() returns uninitialized memory,
    hence the warning. Use calloc() to zero-initialize the buffer. The
    actual contents don't matter here since the test verifies that pwrite()
    fails on a sealed memfd.
