We need to init the complete page during buddy cache init
by setting the contents to '1'. This ensures that during
resize when we increment the s_groups_count we don't hit
the erros as below.

EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used:
	Allocating block 1040385 in system zone of 127 group
