In Rust, producing an invalid value of any type is immediate undefined
behavior (UB); this includes via zeroing memory. Therefore, since an
uninhabited type has no valid values, producing any values at all for it is
UB.
The Rust standard library type `core::convert::Infallible` is uninhabited,
by virtue of having been declared as an enum with no cases, which always
produces uninhabited types in Rust.
The current kernel code allows this UB to be triggered, for example by code
like `Box::<core::convert::Infallible>::init(kernel::init::zeroed())`.
Thus, remove the implementation of `Zeroable` for `Infallible`, thereby
avoiding the unsoundness (potential for future UB).
