RISC-V: Properly zero out memory when allocating
Closes RV-620
What
Fixes the memory allocation to properly zero out the entire assigned mapping.
Why
Previously we would only zero out up to the length of what was requested. However, this can be less than mapped size. Malloc from Musl, however, needs those parts to be zeroed out too.
