Subject: [PATCH 1/7] iscsi-target: Use a variable initialisation in
 iscsi_set_default_param() directly

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@...rs.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sat, 12 Dec 2015 11:36:02 +0100

Omit the unnecessary setting to a null pointer for the variable "param"
at the beginning of the function "iscsi_set_default_param"
because it can be directly initialized with the return value
from the function "kzalloc".
