[PATCH v1] mtdinfo: Initialize reginfo variable before invoking mtd_regioninfo

From: Yang Wei <Wei.Yang at windriver.com>
If not initializing this variable, its value would be random. So
once the value of the regionindex field of region_info_user structure
is greater than mtd->numeraseregions. ioctl,which comes with MEMGETREGIONINFO,
would return -EINVAL
