Subject: [PATCH 08/52] ext4: miscellaneous error checks and coding cleanups for mballoc

From: Shen Feng <shen@...fujitsu.com>

ext4_mb_seq_history_open(): check if sbi->s_mb_history is NULL

ext4_mb_history_init(): replace kmalloc and memset with kzalloc

ext4_mb_init_backend(): remove memset since kzalloc is used

ext4_mb_init(): the return value of ext4_mb_init_backend is int,
	but i is unsigned, replace it with a new int variable.
