Clean up relay_alloc_page_array() slightly by using vzalloc rather than vmalloc and memset

We can optimize kernel/relay.c::relay_alloc_page_array() slightly by
using vzalloc.  The patch makes these changes:

 - use vzalloc instead of vmalloc+memset.
 - remove redundant local variable 'array'.
 - declare local 'pa_size' as const.

Cuts down nicely on both source and object-code size.
