9p: set req refcount to zero to avoid uninitialized usage

When a new request is allocated, the refcount will be zero if it is
reused, but if the request is newly allocated from slab, it is not fully
initialized before being added to idr.

If the p9_read_work got a response before the refcount initiated. It will
use a uninitialized req, which will result in a bad request data struct.

Here is the logs from syzbot.

Below is a similar scenario, the scenario in the syzbot log looks more
complicated than this one, but this patch can fix it.

     T21124                   p9_read_work
======================== second trans =================================
p9_client_walk
  p9_client_rpc
    p9_client_prepare_req
      p9_tag_alloc
        req = kmem_cache_alloc(p9_req_cache, GFP_NOFS);
        tag = idr_alloc
        << preempted >>
        req->tc.tag = tag;
                            /* req->[refcount/tag] == uninitialized */
                            m->rreq = p9_tag_lookup(m->client, m->rc.tag);
                              /* increments uninitalized refcount */

        refcount_set(&req->refcount, 2);
                            /* cb drops one ref */
                            p9_client_cb(req)
                            /* reader thread drops its ref:
                               request is incorrectly freed */
                            p9_req_put(req)
    /* use after free and ref underflow */
    p9_req_put(req)

To fix it, we can initialize the refcount to zero before add to idr.
