[PATCH 2.4] cciss: fix for passthru ioctls

[mike . miller]

The following patch fixes a problem in our passthru ioctls. I added a memset to
zero out buffers before doing a read. Seems like I had a curly brace out of place.

Thanks to Stanislav Semakin for pointing this out.

Please consider this for inclusion.
