configfs: Zero terminate data in configfs attribute writes.

Browse Source 
Attributes in configfs are text files.  As such, most handlers expect to be
able to call functions like simple_strtoul() without checking the bounds
of the buffer.  Change the call to zero terminate the buffer before calling
the client's ->store() method.  This does reduce the attribute size from
PAGE_SIZE to PAGE_SIZE-1.

Also, change get_zeroed_page() to alloc_page(), as we are handling the
termination.
