The purpose of this `memset` was to overwrite memory with garbage data before freeing it, helping detect bugs where the freed memory is accessed afterward. Therefore, removing it will no impact on functionality. Or it could be zapped with `memset_s` but zapping seems negligible in this case. It passes tier1 tests. See [JDK-8337679](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8337679).
