If zeroing the buffer proved to not be beneficial, then maybe it's best 
to revert said commit (or replace av_calloc with av_malloc_array to keep 
the integer overflow checks).
It will prevent writing to the same memory twice, and allow us to detect 
unintended access to uninitialized bytes.

Either way lgtm.
