[PATCH] g_file_storage: fix obscure race condition

Browse source 
This patch (as575) fixes an unlikely race in the g_file_storage driver.
The problem can occur only when the driver is unbound before its
initialization routine has finished.

I also took the opportunity to replace kmalloc/memset with kzalloc.
