Subject: [PATCH] block/vdi: Zero unused parts when allocating a new block

The new block was filled with zero when it was allocated by g_malloc0,
cd9d161
but when it was reused later and only partially used, data from the
cd9d161
previously allocated block were still present and written to the new
cd9d161
block.
cd9d161
cd9d161
This caused the problems reported by bug #919242
cd9d161
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/919242).
cd9d161
cd9d161
Now the unused parts of the new block which are before and after the data
cd9d161
are always filled with zero, so it is no longer necessary to zero the whole
cd9d161
block with g_malloc0.

I also updated the copyright comment.
