loop: zero fill bio instead of return -EIO for partial read
commit 8268f5a741 ("deny partial write for loop dev fd") tried to fix the loop device partial read information leak problem. But it changed the semantics of read behavior. When we read beyond the end of the device we should get 0 bytes, which is normal behavior, we should not just return -EIO Instead of returning -EIO, zero out the bio to avoid information leak in case of partail read.
