kzalloc(0, GFP_KERNEL) occurs in drivers/usb/core/config.c in
usb_get_configuration function. I already wrote about this slub bug
report and offered a
patch(http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0705.1/0154.html). I
don't know, may be it is not major thing, if it is, just ignore it. I
just think, that
--
length = ncfg * sizeof(struct usb_host_config);
dev->config = kzalloc(length, GFP_KERNEL);
--
isn't clear, because ncfg - in my case - is 0 and I suppose, that size
of the leastest slab cache can become(in future) smaller than
sizeof(struct usb_host_config).
Thanks for attention.
