    Modernize geom_stats_snapshot_get
    
    * A logically useless memset() is used to fault in some memory pages.
      Change it to explicit_bzero so the compiler won't eliminate it.
    
    * Eliminate the second memset.  It made sense in the days of the Big
      Kernel Lock, but not in the days of fine-grained SMP and especially
      not in the days of VDSO.
