In certain situations the user can read out previous contents of
pages. To do this, create a filesystem that returns a short count on
a read request. Then issue a read for a file. If there are pages to
be read, that are not touched at all, these will not be zeroed.
The fix is to zero out all pages that are not touched.
Thanks to Sven Tantau for the bug report.
