Message-ID: <1306172407.8198.3.camel@localhost.localdomain>
Date: Mon, 23 May 2011 23:40:07 +0600
From: Rakib Mullick <rakib.mullick@...il.com>
To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>
Subject: [PATCH] drivers: Use kzalloc instead of 'kmalloc+memset', where
possible.
Following patch removes the uses of 'kmalloc+memset' from various drivers subsystems, which is replaced by kzalloc. kzalloc take care of setting allocated memory with null, so it helps to get rid from using memset.
