Subject: [PATCH 6/15] ide: remove needless zeroing of hwgroup fields from init_irq()

Since kmalloc_node() is called with __GFP_ZERO flag there is no need to
explicitly zero hwgroup fields.

While at it:

* Use 'hwif' instead of 'hwif->drives[0].hwif' for kmalloc_node() call.

* Fix whitespace damage.
